Harsh Goenka's Post On Different Skin Tone Band-Aids Sparks Debate Online
"Why would one do that? If you have got hurt, apply a band-aid and be done with it, rather than looking for matching skin tones. Weird,' commented one user on the post.
Whenever there is a small bruise or a cut on the body, we often turn to the sticking plaster Band-Aid. Almost everybody has it in their first aid kit. And now a post by Industrialist Harsh Goenka on the microblogging site Twitter about the adhesive bandage matching different skin tones has sparked a debate online.
"Was matching skin tones really necessary? Some innovations don't make sense!," read the caption shared by the business tycoon Harsh Goenka.
