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.

My face looks like a 5 because I retain my tans. My body looks like a 4 though.

Yeah this essentially. My chest area/arms looks like a low 5 and my face looks like a low 6. When I was younger my pics made me look like a 4. Just want it to be an even skin tone, would prefer it being a 5.5

I am III

The test said I'm a 2 but I'm definitely a 1. Any makeup other than Ivory or Porcelain makes me look like I've been tangoed. I'm really pale.

Whenever I'm in a photo next to somebody else, I look like I'm ill in comparison to them lol

Spoiler

By ancestry I'm French and Polish

I'm two I think.

Your test says 3.

I have blue eyes, i tan easily, my unexposed skin (i.e. my underarm) is very pale. I'd generally say that my complexion is somewhere between olive and pale.

You are fitz IV

3/4.

It said 3 but it's definitely wrong lol, I'm at least 4 or 5

2-3

[h="1"]III lol[/h]

That quiz said that I was Fitz II.
I'd say that I'm about 2, closer to 3 than 1 though. :tongue:

The study accepted me and said I was a 3 but I feel that's because the guy administering it was a dark skinned black american guy and he just perceived my arms to be very light but I'm happy to be in the study either way.

I'm still pretty sure my skin type is a 4

Type 2.

Tbf your arms are the best indicator of your skin colour. You tan easily from your face due to that part being in constant contact with the sun and the arms/chest are more untouched by the sun and are closer to your natural birth skin colour.
