Is It True That “Black Don’t Crack”?

How true is this cliche? I have heard it a twenty million times. All signs point to true – it’s due to the amount of collagen and malanin in the black skin. In a nutshell, melanin is a sticky pigment produced by your skin that works like sunscreen, protecting the skin from UV rays.

Apparently black people have a natural skin hydration system that makes black skin look hydrated and smoother. Look at Idris Elba (45) and Will Smith (49) both aging without hard lines or wrinkles. Could it be just instances of incredible genes or if there is some truth to the pleasant stereotype about black folks and their skin.

On the other hand, dark skin tones are comparatively more prone to pimples and acne, so you can’t survive a skin toner. Bro, the stereotype could be 100% true but I wouldn’t advise walking in the sun without sun protector. Manbox team recommends these products for you gents to avoid any cracks.
