    The colour ivory is the lightest in rimmel foundations & it's too dark for me..

    Hahaha I'm a natural redhead, and my skin practically radiates white the moment I step out into direct sunlight.

    I've lived in California for over a year now, and my skin still looks the same as it did when I left Minnesota!

    Also, I found this photo of me and one of my good friends. It's almost funny how we glow in the sun.

    I didn't read all of the comments (so many). I am also fair skinned and I don't tan. I've been wearing sunscreen and wearing hats since I was 12. That's how I keep my skin youthful.

    I don't think people universally dislike pale skin. Different people have different preferences. I think many of us just like natural. So, whatever skin color is natural for you, is lovely just the way it is. Pale is not the best descriptive word because it implies colorless and other such things. I have light skin, but I have dark eyebrows/lashes, rosy cheeks, freckles, pink lips, and a little bit darker color to my eye lids. I have very light skin, but there are plenty of people replying on here that are lighter than I am (based on what they are saying).

    I love being pale, having red hair I think it would look awfully odd if I wasn't =0

    I am pale! My husband pokes fun at me because my breasts and stomach glow. My arms and legs are just a tad darker. He's naturally always a little darker like he has a faint tan. When I was a kid I was always outside and I was always dark. I burn and then tan. I have a mix of my parents. My dad just darkens, he can be very dark if he's out in the sun (the arm he sticks out the window when he drives usually is!) and my mom only burns, she cannot tan. My older brother is like my dad only sometimes he peels, my older sister is like my mom. Me and my younger sister got a mix. We burn and then peel and then we are tan underneath.

    I also get made fun of because I take care to use sunblock and sometimes carry an umbrella when I walk. Sun is hot! I know if need some sunlight but dang, sun. You are vicious. But I do agree with an earlier post. Pale + stretch marks = not good.

    I am super pale and I actually have a bad sunburn in my profile pic. Luckily the gorgeous man next to me sort of detracts from that. :P

    I love being fair. I was born white and want to stay that way!

    OMG! hahahaha :laugh: :laugh:

    move on this is 21st century...your skin colour hardly matters....nobody likes or dislikes your because of it...

    Ummm... that's not what I was referring to. I don't want to ruin my skin with tanning. Hence wanting to stay as natural as I was when I was born.

    So no tattoos or makeup either then?

    I started out white many years back and stayed white, since I have avoided sun for much of my life and ALWAYS use sunscreen every day I go out. I believe it has helped my skin to stay pretty decent and not so old-looking so far, thank goodness! We live near some older (55-105+, literally) folks and some have those spraytans done and they look like baked beans, since it doesn't match anything they ever started with but they are trying to cover the wrinkles. I think any colour can be beautiful and is, but a healthy version of whatever we are is what I want to be--if I were born really dark, I would STILL stay out of the sun and hopefully have nice-looking darker skin!

    Ha! That's pretty much what almost all palest shades look like on me. Some of the ivory ones are close enough though that if I only use a little and blend, blend , blend, I can make it work.

    There were times when I was younger and wore more make-up that as a finishing powder, I'd just use baby powder since it was closer than anything else. ha ha.

    well i don't think stretch marks with any skin color is a "go". and also, a benefit of having pale skin is white stretch marks blend in, while with darker skin colors they stand out more.

    Even when I blend it, it looks ridiculous and doesn't blend well on my neck either lol, I just wear some concealer and moisturiser nowadays, still on the hunt for a good pale foundation!

    The inside of your wrist is the worst place to try foundation. My skin there is nearly pale blue! You won't ever find one to match. centre of your face is the best or decolletage. Necks are pale too so trying it on your jaw isn't good either.

    I am pale (Irish). I tanned when younger but stopped after age 21. If you don't think my fair skin is sexy I really do not care. I have no desire to tan. If my glowing white skin bothers you in a bikini you can avert your eyes.

    I'm Irish/English/Swedish/German yet I am not pale. I have blue eyes and blonde brown hair. For some reason I have a darker skin tone that is yellow in color. Olive skin maybe? I'm not even pink!

    Just thought it was weird with the heritage I've got. I won't complain though. I don't tan nor ever would so I guess I can enjoy easily finding make up foundation colors or not looking like I never go outside (which I don't haha).

    My husband is pretty funny thought as he has black hair/brown eyes yet he's super pale! He totally could pull off the goth look.

    Pale skin is beautiful especially ivory as it's so rare.

    I gravitate towards ethnic looking boys though ;)

    Agreed!! : )
