As many celebs have been fighting against colorism in the Pakistani entertainment industry, it’s disappointing when a household name like Ayeza Khan is promoting a fairness cream. The Meharposh actress is in hot water for promoting the skin lightening product.
When model-cum-actress Amna Ilyas has been combating colorism in the industry for ages, it’s sad to see the industry regress when renowned actresses promote skin lightening products even now. Even Ranjha Ranjha Kardi actress Iqra Aziz asserted that she would never endorse a fairness cream.

Paison k liye kuch b krain gi… Yh to phir ek commercial hai so called cream ki…
I have found out that in the UK Faiza beauty cream has been banned due to some objections regarding its ingredients which are not suitable for use. It is not sold now in cosmetics/Indian/Pakistani stores.
Well….aiza se pehle bh faiza cream bht bikti thi so farq ni parhta…y people are critisizing her???
Skin lightening cream is wrong and Allah swt made no mistake for creating us . It’s wrong for any celebs to endorse those products because what’s kind of example are we setting for women and young girls . What’s about the males ? The males think having a woman who lighter skin is more prestige.
Regardless of skin colour should not impact on a woman personality. Look personality not skin colour !!!!!!
