When it comes to skin care for black women should I be using different types of products? I heard from my aunt that our skin needs a totally different type of care because we have different skin but she didn't say what was the difference. I know the color is different lol but what is it with our skin that needs to be treated differently.

Hmm off the top of my head I know that a lot of times not as high of an SPF factor is needed since those with more pigment are less affected by the sunlight. I guess the degree.type of moisturizing may be different too. African-American skin ages the most gracefully so I wouldn't worry too much

African-American skin does age more gradually (and gracefully). Lucky!

Some skin care lines are Carol's Daughter, Ambi, and Opal.
