Abstract. This review of black and white human skin differences emphasizes the alleged importance of factors other than the obvious, i.e., skin color. Physicochemical differences and differences in susceptibility to irritants and allergens suggest a more resistant black than white skin.
Skin barrier function is reportedly stronger in darker skin tones (the stratum corneum is the skin barrier). Asian skin is reported to have similarities with Caucasian skin in terms of water loss and has the weakest barrier function.
Average skin colors are seen as most attractive. Typically, tan is the average skin color, making it very attractive to most people. However, the most attractive skin color varies on preference, culture, and sex. A healthy skin complexion and rosy “glow” is always considered attractive.
The preference for more golden or 'yellow-toned' skin as healthier might be explained by the 'carotenoid pigments' that we get from the fruit and vegetables in our diet. These plant pigments are powerful antioxidants that soak up dangerous compounds produced when the body combats disease.
Choosing clothing colors that complement your skin tone can enhance your overall appearance. For warmer skin tones (yellow undertones), earthy tones like browns, oranges, and yellows work well. Cool skin tones (pink undertones) are complemented by cool colors like blues, greens, and purples.
“Work in our lab has shown that darkly pigmented skin has far better function, including a better barrier to water loss, stronger cohesion, and better antimicrobial defense, and we began to ponder the possible evolutionary significance of that,” said Peter Elias, MD, professor of dermatology.
Humans with dark skin pigmentation have skin naturally rich in melanin, especially eumelanin, and have more melanosomes which provide superior protection against the deleterious effects of ultraviolet radiation. This helps the body to retain its folate reserves and protects against damage to DNA.
Normal skin: The best of all, it is balanced, not too oily or dry, with smooth skin texture. Sensitive skin: Gets easily irritated, and prone to redness, burning, or itching.
Discolored skin
Color changes to the skin can sometimes indicate underlying illness. "Skin sometimes looks gray, sallower, in people with underlying chronic illness," says Dr. Brod. Yellowish- or orangish-looking skin can be a sign of kidney or liver disease.
This implies that a person with dark skin will experience more heat and more cold. The inverse of this is also possible. This means that a person with white skin will experience less heat and less cold as compared to a person with dark skin. Hence option (B) is the correct answer.
1. South Sudan. Topping the list is South Sudan, where some of the world's darkest skin tones can be found. The South Sudanese, particularly the Dinka and Nuer ethnic groups, are known for their exceptionally deep, dark complexions.
Seeing Red: The Color of Passion
Studies have shown that women find men wearing red more attractive and sexually desirable. It's not just a coincidence that red is the color of love and passion – it's deeply rooted in our psychology and even our biology.
Findings indicated that non-Hispanic Blacks and Hispanics have accelerated aging, and non-Hispanic Whites have decelerated aging.
HAIR STRENGTH
Asian hair and Caucasian hair handle stress and fatigue well. Asian hair has the highest hardness and elasticity. It is resistant to stretching and can withstand a traction force of 60 to 65 grams.
Golden skin tones are medium skin tones. This skin tone is usually seen in people of Asian and Southern European ethnic descent. It can also be referred to as olive skin. This skin tone has a balanced neutral beige hue.
Among the common skin types, sensitive skin is often considered somewhat rare. Sensitive skin tends to react more easily to external factors, making it somewhat challenging to manage.
Skin type 3: normal skin
Supple and soft, fine-pored and a rosy complexion: if that's what you see when you look in the mirror, then you have normal skin. Even committing occasional beauty crimes won't do it too much harm. But to keep its healthy appearance, even normal skin needs moisture and protection.
Because of melanin's ability to defend against UV damage and sunburn, it also protects darker skin tones against the signs of ageing like wrinkles, brown spots, and visible blood vessels. So in most cases, dark skin shows wrinkles and age spots a lot later in life.

Blue is renowned for its calming properties. It's often used to reduce stress and anxiety, create a sense of tranquility, and aid in sleep.
The color yellow elicits a feeling of comfort, while red tends to make people feel more hungry and impulsive. Marketing experts refer to the pairing of yellow and red as the "Ketchup and Mustard Theory."
