What's your Fitzpatrick skin type?

Quiz Image

The Fitzpatrick skin type scale is used to measure skin colour. It measures to what extreme your skin tans or burns. There are 6 types ranging from palest to darkest skin colour.

This quiz is not completely accurate, but your result should be a pretty good guess. Your result will also tell you your risk for sunburn or skin cancer, but don't really trust it too much. Talk to a doctor first before you listen to the quiz's advice (because I am not a medical professional and neither is the quiz).
