What's your skin type on the fitzpatrick scale?

I am wondering where most people land. I personally feel that I am a skin type 4 honestly. My dad was a mix of English italian Lebanese and Algerian descent. And my mom's family is from Ghana. My skin type is pretty easily tanned and I keep my tan it's actually quite hard maybe impossible to be the same color as the areas that are unexposed to the sun. I have burned once in my life in nevada sun I peeled around my eyelids that's about it though. I'm sensitive to the sun because I have eczema so idk that counts or not.


ill add a chart and quiz of fitzpatrick skin type to this post.

Vote Ukip.
Like I or II, except I don't burn particularly easily. I've been out walking with friends in summer and worn no sun cream. My friends arrive back a shade I can only describe as "Lobster Blush" everywhere that was exposed whereas I might have a bit of red on my nose/cheeks. I also don't tan particularly easily.

I'm definitely a three. I hate the fact that I burn sometimes. :mad:
Hmm either one or two I think.
