Fairer is not more beautiful when it comes to beauty standards
In a new six-month series called "White Lies," CNN "As Equals" is investigating the world of skin whitening. The series aims to raise awareness of colorism, the idea that lighter skin is best, even among people of the same ethnic or racial group.

CNN's Jaya Sharma spoke with several people of color about their lived experiences of colorism and skin whitening.
