I agree with dark skin !
but when you say “Exfoliate your skin regularly!”, one time a week is it enough ? I am afraid of exfoliating more often for fear of aggravating my skin…

I agree with the list for pale skin. Flaws like redness & scars show up really obvious. TwT

Gah. As a younger person with dark skin, I’m still waiting to see those pros! I am definitely experiencing the cons, though. I have to use a glycolic acid toner to help with dead skin cells and all the acne scars are taking forever to heal. I also have uneven skin tone. Aw. I just made myself sad.

Janice,

I think what the book meant was people with darker skin AND curly hair.

J_Doll,

From the above list, yes it does seem that way but guess what, darker skin has a HUGE advantage over paler skin too – it ages better!
