Which skin type burns minimally and always tans well?

  1. Skin type IV

  2. Skin type V

  3. Skin type III

  4. Skin type II

The correct answer is: Skin type V

The skin type that burns minimally and tans well is typically classified as skin type V. This skin type is characterized by a darker pigmentation that adapts well to sunlight, allowing for a tan to develop more easily compared to lighter skin types. Individuals with this skin type generally have a more resilient response to sun exposure, experiencing minimal burning and a stronger tendency to achieve a deeper, lasting tan. In contrast, skin types II and III are lighter in pigmentation and are more susceptible to sunburn, with type II generally burning easily and tan minimally, while type III might tan more than type II but still has a moderate risk of burning. Skin type IV, while it does tan as well, does not consistently exhibit the burning and tanning characteristics found in type V. This understanding of skin types is critical for estheticians when recommending sun protection and tanning practices for clients based on their individual skin responses.
