White Lie

A company which markets skin-whitening tablets under the name Hythiol-C has created the worst commercial yet.

View large image Local TVB starlet Sheren Tang Shui-man (邓萃雯), a woman with a healthy Chinese skin-tone (see photo at right), was filmed against a lavender background under the glare of intense white light, complete with haze filter for that soft, glowing look.

It's freaking creepy; she looks like a corpse. Under those conditions, Tyra Banks would cease to be black.

Aside that the spot skirts the edge of false advertising, were I a woman, I'd be insulted.
