People and their obsession with her “skin bleaching”. One, the pic with lebron was during the fake tan hella bronzer era. Secondly, light skin people, hell, even dark skin people, change shades. When I lived out east I looked sick in the winters, while I was pretty damn caramely during the summers, my winter and summer foundation was easily 3-4 shades apart.


That said, I have no doubt she lightens or has photography shot to make her brighter in some shoots. But Bey ain’t bleaching

I def feel you!

But here’s the thing…
If she is ensuring that she looks lighter when photographed, that’s still a cause for concern. Especially at this point in her career.:sadcam:



What I will say is that she and Solange looked closer in complexion back in the day, and she looks lighter now than she did even in the Lemonade era.

She changes looks with eras but I don’t think it’s bleaching. She had the same type of look for the first Super Bowl and white women were accusing her of cultural appropriation lol. She then went back Black with Renaissance. And is now back looking more white washed for the country theme.

Yes, bronzing lotion, tan lotion, and heavy bronzer was big in the 00’s, we was all out here looking all shades of fake orange, gold, and tan :russ:

I know but its rare that brown black women were doing that at least I though. Also that first article and the second slide kind of proves my point of her bleaching.

No it wasn’t. Black women wore a ton of bronzer back then. I’m not even a big makeup person, but that was when I first started buying makeup and all of us had a bronzer or two in our arsenal.

I mean it was the 00s, everything ain’t cached to the internet from that time. Beyonce and j lo were two of the (women of color) faces of the bronzed look…

Edit: funnily enough there’s a post on LSA saying the same - hell no this isn’t me, I just tried googling this topic to show it discussed amongst BW so you can see this was big across the board.
