In a video by @kiahcakes on TikTok, she shared how she and another light-skinned lady were asked to apply charcoal on their face.
She stated they had to do so because it was very hard to capture light-skinned people.
When they tried to capture them, it didn’t work, and they had to find a solution to darken their complexion.
The lady noted that the cyber cafe operator advised them to get a makeup artist to use a darker foundation on them, but it was too early to get one.

She said:
“When they said NYSC will humble you, this is one of the perfect examples.”
