We all have melanin in our bodies, and some of us produce more melanin than others. Melanin is a natural skin pigment that determines skin, hair, and eye color in people and animals. Melanin is vital because it protects the skin from UV light and cellular damage.
Genetics play an important role in how much melanin a person's body produces. If your body produces a lot of melanin, your skin is darker. That's why we black people are darker because we have more melanin.
As naturally dark-skinned women, we exude a powerful and confident aura wherever we walk. Our beauty draws attention easily, and we are gorgeous, to say the least. We look like we've been dipped in chocolate, bronzed in elegance, enameled with grace, and toasted with beauty!
