Tibetan, I'm so glad to hear you've changed your mind about this. I was getting sore from biting my tongue whenever anyone said that dark eyes are the result of toxins or some other "disease". I found that to be unintentionally racist, but lately it seemed like you'd realized the implications and changed your mind. Maybe I'm wrong, and you haven't changed your mind about that, but if so then your response to Melobangz wouldn't make sense.

I don't think Melobangz is saying that blue is the "true" eye color. Im almost completely sure that he's saying that everyone's eyes would be blue if most of the melanin was removed. There's nothing racist about that statement. It's just a statement of fact. Remove all the melanin from both layers of the iris and you'd have pink eyes (and probably begin to go blind).

Hey Mocha, I haven't so much had a "change of mind," I think people may have misread what I was saying the whole time.

I just wanted to share, many of us with our bad eating habits (which are average: of store bought, process foods and being heavily exposed to environmental toxins, malnourishment over the years) have literally our identities altered from what we as human beings are genetically predisposed to be. As a result of these exposures, truth be known, many of us have a different iris color than what we were genetically born with. This goes for genetic height factors, skin quality, hair, nails, life span, would you believe, boobs too! Lol.

As far as the statement claim for toxins and iris color, its not dark eyes, its supposedly "black irises." I do not know how true this is. All I know, is I had read it and shared it. I can only speak from experience, I have been lighter in my irises after months of cleansing, (unintentionally to lift iris shades of course), I just wanted to be healthy and noticed this as a result.

As for the poster, he/she said everyone has blue eyes underneath, I agree with you, remove the pigment and we'd be pinkish red like a bunny.

I'm not insinuating he maybe racist, I just feel like many such as himself, have a preference for the look of an Aryan "self" vs. the exact version of themselves as they are now. Its just a preference I am noticing and not so much racism.

I am all for do what you want, just know why you want to do it in the first place. I still am for cleansing to get to my genetic eye color. No matter what, mine are naturally light and mixed brown and blue (and I remember a time when I wanted brown brown eyes and as I got older, I learned to really appreciate them). I have to admit, I was teased for having my color I think that was why I wanted them brown. I now realized as an adult, it was jealousy.

But now, they are murky and not as vibrant as they used to be. I think lightening by honey is great, but perhaps not so much for me as I get bad blephitis and I am not really sure I like what its giving me hue wise. I feel kinda fake like its not really mine. So yeah, its my issue or hangup with it.

I have already told everyone why I want to do cleansing as opposed to honey drops. I am just curious, for anyone here doing Honey: What is your exact reasoning for wanting lighter or different iris color?

Just for vanity reasons? For fun? To look different? Do you hate or dislike what you have so much? Want to look like a family member? Did you envy someone for having what you didn't?
