Ghanaian actress Yvonne Nelson has been forced to respond to rumors that she has been bleaching her skin. The rumors, fueled by her ever lightening skin complexion has been airing for nearly a year but the mention of her name by a US website, Atlanta Blackstar as one of 15 black celebrities believed to be whitening their skin, moved Miss Nelson to give a response
Their report says
Atlanta Blackstar Report says ''Yvonne Nelson is a Ghanaian actress, model, film producer and entrepreneur. A former Miss Ghana contestant, Yvonne shot to fame after a big screen role in “Princess Tyra” and Playboy. Yvonne has denied that she has bleached her skin''.
Yvonne Nelsons denial says: “My present skin tone is as a result of the constant use of the famous Queen Elizabeth Cocoa Butter. About 3 years ago, I was fortunate enough to secure a deal to be the "Face of Queen Elizabeth Cocoa Butter" and as part of the contract, I was given a lifetime supply of the body cream. I have therefore been using this cream exclusively for 3 years, so what you see now is the result of the goodness of Queen Elizabeth. It has simply enhanced my natural complexion rather than bleach it.”
Queen Elizabeth Cocoa Butter, which is the official moisturiser of the British monarch, after whom the product is named is rich in akomfem oil which is believed to have given Miss Yvonne Nelson this caramel skin colour. It also contains vitamins A, E and F which are essential for nourishment and moisturising without leaving the skin greasy'
*This report of denial was a few months ago and Yvonne's skin is even lighter than when she was accused of bleaching.....na wah!

DeleteMe too @ Bitchplis. Anywayz. U all should always ve @ the back of ur bleached brain tha ur beauty or your Micheal Jackson skin tone will attract him, but your CHARACTER is what will keep him... PS. Bleaching is d highest form of Complex problem.

A blind man can see she is bleaching, coco butter ko cocoa smoothie ni.

ReplyDeleteOne Word: LIAR.
ReplyDeleteSo, Cocoa Butter now whitens skin? Make una fear God true true...
ReplyDeleteOluyomi Odukoya

ReplyDeleteStop deceiving yourselves.

I believe her
ReplyDeleteAnyone else using the cocoa butter cream or lotion should come out let's make comparison.
ReplyDeleteI use cocoabutter for my kids and them no yellow oh. All it dose is make their skin beautiful,maybe na another type of cocoabutter she is talking about
DeleteBeen using cocoa butter like forever lol...My own complexion never change ooo hihihihi
DeleteAnd here I am wondering why I'm still dark as hell, even after using cocoa butter for 10 years.
Delete@Yvonnenelsongh,it doesn't matter if u were fortunate to be the Face of Queen Elizabeth. The bone of contention here is "is there a change in ur skin complexion?If Yes then u are bleaching(Toning).u are naturally dark skinned. P.S: Anyone using shea butter or cocoa butter be it in it's natural state or processed state,have this at the back of your mind. It's goin 2 lighten ur complexion(Tone u up). Mbok,leave that grammar. If u were as intelligent as u portray urself to be then u should have been witty with ur response/reply. A cream be it Estee lauder,clinique,clarins etc that's taking u from a dark skinned lady to a light skinned lady is doing what 2 ur complexion. Mbok it's bleaching(Toning) u my dear.
ReplyDeleteWelcome Linda,you came on time.
DeleteI disagree with u on the fact that shea butter tones the skin.I'm a very dark skinned lady and have been using unprocessed shea butter for ages now and it has not changed my skin tone.pls get ur facts right and don't mislead pple.Gracias
DeleteKeep quiet before you start sounding like miss know all. I havr used shea butter before and I left from chocolate to extremely dark. Same happened to my mum and sis. We had to change itiimmediately. Besides we have creams that only enhance your colour and do not bleach. Bcos of the weather condition in nigeria one can get easily dark. With a good cream, iy can protect your skin and aid your colour enhancement. It doesn't mean you are bleaching or toning. I presently use some forever living products supplement and cream and even though I'm still chocolate in colour, my skin looks better and it's way lighter than it use to. With products and supplements with vit e, vit d, and active HA your skin will sure look great and you could even lighten up a little if that is the true colour of your skin. You all should try the forever range of products. They are awesome
DeleteWu is dis Fool.dt is sayin wt she doesnt kno? How can u say shea butter bleaches d skin? Or u dnt kno wt is called shea butter or better stil "ORI" to enlighten u more.
Delete@Anon 11:48Am, remember what works for A might not work for B ok! We all have different skin types. I used a certain cream,Amos white & didn't have dark patches on my knuckles or feet.a friend used it & experienced those. I used shea butter(in it's very natural state) and it lightened me. I went from light skinned to lighter skinned.
Delete@Anon 11:10Am,well our skin(s) are different. What worked(works) for Mr A might not work for Mr B. I used natural shea butter and I got lighter. If u used it too,and ur complexion remained the same is it my fault?Lolz.

DeleteIt's true o. Shea butter lightened me. I was even surprised cus I'm dark skinned and never ever planned to tone up. I just decided to go native and started using 'ori'( shea butter) mixed with " adi agbon'( coconut oil) and Lo and behold,i started getting lighter and people began to ask me what I was using so I stopped and now I'm back to my normal jergens.
DeleteSo it depends on the skin type and if the ori is original.
All na wash *inruggedybabasvoice*
ReplyDeleteTa mechiegonu dis gal u r bleaching finish nd klank like my Africans pple in south africa

DeleteYvonne constant use of coco butter cream abi. Make ur skin light.no worry na. Michael Jackson u go soon turn to.
ReplyDeleteI think it is only POKO that has admitted she's bleaching. Odas denied......... #Teemah Banks
ReplyDeleteFoluke daramola did too(technically) on a tvc interview... She said 'I touch up my skin'
DeleteShe. Looks good. Though
ReplyDeleteWell truth is better living shows on your skin. If she's stopped smoking, her skin would appear lighter, if she ate a better diet, full of fruits and vegetables, her skin would get brighter, if she now has money for regular spa products and treatments ( body scrubs, acid peels etc.) her skin would appear lighter, brighter and smoother. Now this lighter doesn't mean she bleached, it just means years or hardship is over and her true color is shining through.
ReplyDeleteYes she looks lighter than before, but as someone who has been accused of bleaching because I got "lighter" as I was able to take better care of my skin, I want to give her benefit of the doubt. It's not like she was dark chocolate and is now creme brulee, she's maybe 5 -7 shades lighter, so it's possible she didn't bleach.
I use to like and admire this babe pretty much buh her over night change of skin is alarming. Black is beautiful my dear there are better cream that will enhance and make ur dark skin beautiful and not to tone you into a light skin. Pls stop and go back to your real skin

ReplyDelete#ablicious#
Yvonne, you are bleaching.
ReplyDeleteOf all the bleachers, you are the only one denying. Toke accepted her bleaching certificate in good faith. Emulate her.
The whole world is tired of your constant denials. Cocoa butter actually darkens the skin a bit. If yours has turned you to a white woman, I put it to you that you added a generous amount of bleaching agent obtained from ATM or Pela.
Am coming. lemme wear my glasses. I need t take a closest glance @ her...
ReplyDeleteAm coming. lemme wear my glasses. I need t take a closest glance @ her...

Stella pls where can I get one?
Yes that cocoa butter enhances your skin color. I have heard of it before. Cotonou girls use it too. They sell it in bene republic where they are known for bleaching.
ReplyDelete@Lushiesta,so true o!! I use Johnson's baby lotion shea & cocoa butter. But if I tell folks I use clarins or clinique. They would so believe me cos my complexion is DOPE,my skin is silky,smooth & soft. When i was using shea butter(I bought it from those Yoruba women)in d market. Conc shea butter,not diluted in any form. If you had seen my complexion then ehn #whew#

She looks better brighter! Its her skin! Leave her be! If e too pain u, call police and arrest her! Bleaching is not just a Nigerian trend.Asians,African Americans,esp their stars bleach! Go check out before and after pics of janet jackson,Diana Ross,Angela Bassett etc, they all bleached! I ve a sneaky suspicion that pple who often condemn it constantly,wish they had the guts to carry it out! If not,why hammer on it endlessly? If you wanna bleach,tone or whatever,do it the healthy way! Avoid hydroquinone.Up~ to~ date Research provides natures's organic products that could get u two shades brighter with firmer skin.Yvon N,do whatever you want! Ha! *for non cussers,I could recommend...lol.

Hating for no reason....what works for you might not work for others....I have used Shea butter, coconut oil, glycerin and vitamin e oil for more than a year now and I look lighter than before.....is that bleaching?..enough of the bleaching song like broken records...you all go get a life and be productive to society.....jobless fools
ReplyDeleteAnd the cream also drains her blood cos she sure looks skinny now
ReplyDelete@Anonymous 104
ReplyDeletePlease take a chill pill. She's a celebrity with mostly young following. So what example is she setting by bleaching? I don't subscribe to insults, they should have focused on the topic instead of highlighting your whoring ways. Perhaps they know something....
Honestly, I believe Yvonne Nelson. I have been using queen Elisabeth Cocoa butter for 3 months now and I've already noticed EVIDENT changes in my skin tone - I'm not necessarily lighter, but my skin is a lot more even and radiant. According to the manufacturers, this cream contains no bleach, nor does it have bleaching effects on the skin. Ingredients are labelled on the bottle as demineralised water, mineral oil, methyl paraben, glycerin, lanolin, cocoa butter and fragrance.
ReplyDeletePeople are so quick to jump to conclusions. How about actually doing some research first before throwing around accusations?
