i agree that the image has obviously been photoshopped as are all other magazine images but i think there is definately a gap in the market when i comes to pale skin. Nicola from girls aloud has recently brought out a pale skin range of makeup called dainty doll, the makeup is great quality and the colours really work well with rather pale, scottish skin like myself. However i do also like to get the bronzer out and give myself a glow when its necessary!

the magic of makeup is that you can be pale and interesting one day and bronzed and glamourous the next!!

Im really pale and i love it apart from the fact that it shows up blemishes and spots way more, esp on my body in summer if i have a skirt on if it starts to get colder my legs turn red/purple... which you cant notice if i had tan on. thats the only thing that annoys me about it... if i stayed a nice milky colour all the time id love it lol

Absolutly i meen i am quite pale skinned and i have learned to love my skin colour and i live in newcastle in the unied kingdom so we dont get much sun here and nearlly every model on the front cover of the magazines here have pale faces xxx
