Making someone’s skin darker than their actual skin tone. “Jacob has a light skin tone. Victoria edits his unedited photo to make him look darker, even though he is not tan because she was convinced that he had a tan skin. Victoria has never met Jacob irl.”

Get the Darkwashing mug.Known as a way to show how kpop stans make kpop idols look darker in pictures because they are convinced every single photo is whitewashed. It’s often used by educated individuals that have been silenced by others that think it does not exist. It does exist, it just doesn’t have a name.
Making someone look darker than they actually are, did not have a name; but now it has one.
Remember: whitewashing is just as bad as darkwashing.
