Skin.
Mirror mirror on the wall, who’s the fairest of them all?…
Do you know your skin type? I do.
I’m no.2.
THIS is why I don’t go to the beach, let alone sun bath.
My sensitive skin prevents me from looking my best. I have always envied guys with tanned skin, as I perceive tan = healthy + masculine, thus I feel I look rather weak and feminine. And, well, Casper-like.
For many years I tried being outdoorsy as much as I could, hoping I could get some tan. Unfortunately, that only got me visiting the doctors. I now realized that I should give in, accept my paleness, and avoid challenging the sun.
I have enough skin problems as it is since youngster years, I don’t want no more skin problems. Period. Guess I just have to get used to my PF50+ protection to enjoy the outdoors. Sigh…

I think I am a 3.5… I do get tanned easily, but don’t have problem with sunburns. Yes you should be careful.
I might I might be a 3. I can get tanned when I am waiting at the lights. :O
I wear sunblock most of the time now – my doctor recommended it. One year, my left arm was a lot darker than my right from driving.
Don’t forget to wear sunglasses too.
3.5? how lucky.
a 3? still rather fair. but better than mine.
oh geez. i’m too lazy to put on sunblock and to wear sunglasses. so much work.
