Can We Talk About Dencia’s Whitenicious ‘Dark Spot Remover?’

If you've seen a drag queen's make-up, then you'd notice that their face doesn't look as masculine as regular men. Their faces are not as square or chiseled as the average man, and that's a lot of times due to highlighting and contouring.
