I used to hate being pale -- I'm a redhead with that translucent skin so all my veins show through really blue! You have to work with the genes you've got though and I've found that by playing up to my paleness I've found ways to look that make me feel better.

I'm working with it and enjoying the drama of strong colouring rather than trying to hide it all the time. I love wearing bold lipsticks and dark nail polishes now. I suppose I've got more confident with age, I feel a lot happier with a few wrinkles but a bit of confidence at 32 than I did with no wrinkles at 22. Even so, I would not be without bronzer or blush in my bag!

you look beautiful and flawless ! and if you want to try a goth look, you don't have to make your skin look paler, lol.

When ever I feel bad about being pale I think of beautiful people who are also pale. One of my favs is the redhead from trading spaces. She was on it a few years ago. She wore bright red lipstick and it looked great.

I understand sometimes you want a change. Use fake tan on your body than a bronzer on your face (sometimes the chemicals in the fake tan irritate your face.)
