ME!!! I'm a charter member of the pale and pasty club!!! I don't tan, and if I don't use 8,000 SPF I'll burn!!!! I do get a little color, but not much, basically I'm still pale, but not as quite as pasty!!!
Well I'm Italian, but I'm also Irish so I guess they cancel each other out. I almost always put sunscreen on since I have bad skin, so I don't get much tan. I played softball every summer up until last year, and I would always get a softball tan (wearing high socks and shorts). I would look at my legs at the end of the day and think "Wow I guess I didn't get tan today!" But then I would pull down my socks and see that I actually got really tan, it just didn't look it because I'm normally so pale.
Me too! I am naturally very pale and when I do get out in the sun I don't burn either. I figure my skin is so white I'm just reflecting those rays back out into space.
I guess my English heritage is to blame... very fair skin. My "tan" is paler than most people's "pale".
I did one time work very hard to get a tan, for my honeymoon. I visited the tanning bed often during the weeks leading up to the wedding, then we honeymooned in Mexico... I BURNED, but came back with the first real tan of my life. It looked AWFUL on me. Just WRONG somehow. I hate looking back at pictures.
So now I slather on the sunblock to prevent sun damage and enjoy the skin that Mother Nature gave me. I'm pale, but I won't look like I'm covered in old leather in a few years!
I'm fair skinned and I do burn if I don't use sunscreen. I've always used sunscreen and I think it's why people always say I look a lot younger then I am. I'd love to look tan but I haven't found a self tanner that doesn't look fake on me, oh well.
Add me to the list also! I can go to the tanner and no one can tell. So, I thought why am I wasting that $$$?
So now I give up...it's just white legs all summer for me!!
