why is it no one seems to like pale skin anymore? everyone wants to be tanned! Is it cause it makes you look ill? About 100 years ago everyone wanted pale skin! It was a sign of wealth and beauty! Whats happened? :(

I'm quite pale and i wish i were paler. The paler the better. I hate orange it's vile. And it's annoying that make up companies are hell bent on catering only to orange people. I can never find a foundation pale enough. Even the lightest shade avalible is darker than my skin tone. It means i can't wear foundation without darkening my skin. So i refuse to even though i would love to wear foundation.

Seems pale is not acceptable in the eyes of make up companies. :rolleyes:

Benefit do a very lovely pale foundation that's much more milky than tangeriney :thumb:
