Most asian countries are big into pale skin. If you check out the kitchen/bath isles of your local asian specialty store, you should be able to find a skin-lightening soap (I use "Block & White" brand at the moment). Also, frequent exfoliation of your skin (using a loofah on your body and an exfoliating scrub on your face) will help. Basically it speeds up the cellular turnover and gets rid of dead skin which can dull your complexion.

Makeup is fine... just for God's sake do NOT use white face paint.

choose a foundation 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin color, and dust it over with the lightest color face powder you can find. if your skin is sensitive, try a lotion with lemon juice and vinegar in it. also, try this website for ways to be more pale:

I have uber pale skin
herers the thing


never see the dam sun, when you do, cake on the sun screen. Wash your skin daliy, ***properly mosterize***

If youre looking for make up, try make up that one or two tones lighter then your skin. If you cant find that do this


Get the nasty stupied white clown paint, and mix in ***a tiny*** amount into your regular foundation, mix and apply. Set it with baby power and make sure you dust yourself off.

I'm Irish so my skin's naturally pale. But I didn't always like it. But now I'm glad I never tanned with all the stuff you hear about skin cancer anymore.

eesh! no kidding! xd

@Nanny2006: as for the makeup, any foundation will do! I suggest Lancome "Color ID" liquid foundation (it's got built in sunblock at SPF 8, and remember to choose a shade 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone) with a dusting of IsaDora Velvet Touch powder in "Sheer Translucent" and a THIN layer of Bloody Mary's White Heat powder.

My skin is naturally quite pale, and here are a things which help me keep my porcelian complexion. My complexion is naturally so pallid that I am frequently asked if I'm wearing makeup, despite the fact that I rarely do.


-Whenever you're going to be outside for more than a few minutes, wear sunblock. I'd reccomend using the oil-free kind, as it isn't as likely to induce acne.

-Invest in a parasol (or several!). Not only will they nicely accent many outfits (unless you dress very informally), but they will help keep the sun off your skin.

-Wash your skin everyday, and use a loofa! It will help stimulate cell regrowth. The occassional rub-down with a pumice stone may help as well.

-Victorian women used lemon juice to help pale thier skin. I believe that it was scrubbed onto the skin. I'm not sure how well it works though, as I never tried it.


Also, a few things to avoid doing...

-NEVER use costume makeup on your skin. It clogs pores, and it looks quite tacky. Remember, there's a major difference between looking like a beautiful bisque doll and looking like a member of KISS.

-Also, don't alter your diet to achieve a pallid complexion. When I first went vegan I didn't take iron supplements(and thus had an iron deficency in my body), and though the lack of iron gave me a very light complexion, it put great strain of my body. I was always tired, and became quite frail.
