I have been wearing a jacket whenever i go outside for past 3 years, and now my arms / chest basically everywhere a jacket covers is COMPLETELY white. My stomach is turning a bit "yellow" now too.
Is anything bad happening to me?
I'm thinking of starting to stand outside in the sun for an hour for a couple days to gain a tan.
I have been wearing a jacket for only self esteem issues if you are wondering why.
