Actually, it is a natural skin color. I am a red-head living in Texas, and I have been told I have orange skin when I have a tan. I had to have a new photo taken for my work id recently, and the black girl running the camera was really chatty with everyone (Latinas and blacks) except me. I asked her how I looked (trying to be chatty with her) and she said (not even in a joking way), that I looked orange but the lamp was so bright that it would wash out. I was surprised that I actually felt hurt by that comment, but all I could manage to say was "oh". I probably should've reported her to HR, but you know, OLDM.
