Dencia Before Dencia Now
In a new interview with
Ebony Magazine,
Cameroonian pop singer, Dencia finally admitted her new skin care
cream, Whitenicious will bleach your skin if you use it all over your
body. But she insists that's not why she is selling it. That her cream
is in fact helping women overcome an obstacle which is dark spots when
they use it.
Here's what Dencia said in the interview:
- EBONY: So you know there’s been a lot of buzz about you on the
internet here lately. Everybody’s talking about your new skin care line,
Whitenicious.
Dencia: And I’m happy that they’re talking because my sales are skyrocketing.
- EBONY: Okay. But do you understand people’s response to the
pictures and advertisement for Whitenicious which says “Say goodbye to
pigmentation and spots forever.”
The picture clearly says “Say goodbye to dark spots and
hyperpigmentation.” I’m not saying “say goodbye
to your Black skin and
try to be like Dencia.” That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying “say
goodbye to dark spots and hyperpigmentation. I have men, White men,
Black men, buying Whitenicous. And guess what
they’re using it for? Dark spots. Not to bleach their entire skin. I don’t think a White man is trying to bleach his skin.
Trust me, I’ve been running this business for the past three weeks and
I’ve read all these emails from girls telling me about how they have
this hyperpigmentation, how they have these dark spots. I have seen so
many pictures. These girls are not trying to bleach their skin. They’re
just trying to get rid of these little things that is making them feel
uncomfortable, you know?
- EBONY: I hear you, I do. And you’re right, many women of African
descent, many women of color, we do suffer from hyperpigmentation. So
there are lots of products on the market that work to fade out those
spots, if you will. But there are also products… and you know this,
especially in West Africa. We see the billboards, we see them in the
markets, we see the women with all of the damage on their skin – there
are products out there that are used to bleach the skin. Your product is
called Whitenicious, of course people will buy it because they want to
bleach.
Dencia: Ok. Will Whitenicious bleach your skin if you use it on all your
skin? Yes, it will. Are we selling Whitenicous for that purpose? No,
we’re not. Whitenicous comes in 30 ml and 60ml. You cannot use the 60 ml
to bleach your whole skin. It’s impossible. And that costs about $150
each.
60 ml can’t even go on your whole feet. I don’t see anybody spending all
that money to bleach their entire skin. I don’t see that happening.
Now, do I have customers who come and buy stuff for over $2000? Yes, I
do. Do I ask them what they want to do with it? No, I don’t. Do I know
what they want to do with it? No, I don’t care because it’s their money,
it’s how they want to spend it.
