Why HUMANS Have Different Skin Colors
We all have differnt skin tones or skin colors. Have you ever think why??
When we think about skin colors, we start classifying humans by skin color like asians, americans, africans and due to this discrimination, many people in this world have to face the difficulty of racism.
What is Milanin :-
But skin color is the natural process. we acheive the skin color by one pigment called milanin. Milaning is a color pigment which is produced by the melanocytes cells in our body. skin color depend on the quantity and type of milanin. If milanin is less, people got light color or if milanin is more , people got dark color.
Type Of Milanin :-
There are mainly two types of milanin and various shades of these two:
Eumelanin and pheumelanin. Eumelanin comes in brown to Black Shades Found in hairs and dusky skin complexion. pheumelanin comes in red to yello shades and it is found in lips, nipples and blonde/red hairs.
Milanin Production:-
Milanin production totally depend on genes. the shade, size and quantity of the milanin is different in every person. we can't change the shade of milanin because it is the natural process, but we can reduce the production of milanin.
Melanin production get increase when we come in contact to sun for a long duration. melanocytes produce more melanin as requested by the keratinocytes cells to protect us from harmful UV radiation. This is why africans are of more melanin, because their area is close to equator of sun. When you are direct contact with sun or high expose of sun always wear sunscreen.
More Melanin is natural protection barrier from uv radiation. If you have more milanin, means you have more protection.
In Daily life we use various whitening, brightening and lightening creams to look good. But what is the difference between all these terms. I will clear your doubt regarding these terms.
