Daily Life In Kerala

Skin lightening (skin whitening) creams for sale at a shop in Thiruvananthapuram (Trivandrum), Kerala, India. Products like this are common all over India and they are believed to gradually lighten the complexion of women's skin. In India a pale complexion is considered a beauty ideal and can lead to higher social status. This can have negative consequences for people with a darker complexion.
