Beauty therapist Noorjehan Majam shows skin lightening products imported from Pakistan, where the practice is commonplace and most facials include some form of skin lightening, in the Heena Salon where she practices in the Fordsburg suburb of Johannesburg on June 19, 2018. - Africa is experiencing a massive trend of skin bleaching, also called lightening or whitening, particularly in teenagers and young adults. The rich tend to opt for pricier registered products which are available in standard doses. Others are likely to buy creams, often bootleg concoctions mixed in the back streets, that may be dangerous and are blatantly sold in defiance of official bans or constraints. South Africa has banned skin bleaching products with high amounts of hydroquinine and mercury, urging people to "reject all colonial notions of beauty". (Photo by GULSHAN KHAN / AFP)
