Understanding your Skin Colour
The natural colour of skin without any pigments is yellowish. However, we are all aware of the different colours of skin and these differences are determined by the thickness of the skin, the blood supply (redàblue) of the dermis, the concentration of carotinoids (orange) in skin and melanin (brown à Black). These basically control the amount of red, yellow, blue and brown that are nature’s palette for colouring skin.
