Dear Scientists,
We all know that skin types were best suited for
people in their own natural habitat and countries,
what would be the Fitzpatrick skin type best for
Toulouse, France and Aix en Provence, France. Is
it skin type II or Skin type III or which
Fitzpatrick type? Thank you
Yours, |

That would depend on how much time you plan on
spending outside, since the damaging kind of
ultraviolet light does not reach indoors. Doing a
quick Wikipedia search on both the Fitzpatrick
scale and on Toulouse in France, I note Toulouse's
southern location, near the Spanish border. Based
on that, I would guess that the "best" type would
be the type found around the Mediterranean, which
is type IV, and neither type II or III.
