Ridiculous! Most light-skinned people spend a fortune on lotions trying to get a darker tan so why should those who want to look lighter be penalised? Nobody thinks that Ambre Solaire is racist.....or do they?!

Actually, its probably safer to have a warning on such things due to those types that look hard to find offense on behalf of others just so they can go round parading themselves how important they are
