What is a common trait of skin type II?

Burns moderately, tans gradually
Always tans well, rarely burns
Burns easily, has difficulty tanning
Burns minimally, tans effortlessly

The correct answer is: Burns easily, has difficulty tanning

A common trait of skin type II is that it typically burns moderately and tans gradually. This skin type is characterized by a sensitivity to sun exposure, leading to moderate burning rather than easy tanning. Individuals with skin type II may have fair skin and often possess light hair and eye color. While other skin types are characterized by either high levels of melanin or a greater ability to tan, skin type II does not have those traits. Those with skin type II are generally advised to use sun protection to prevent burning, as their skin is more susceptible to sun damage compared to darker skin types. Understanding the characteristics of each skin type helps in choosing appropriate skincare and sun protection methods to maintain skin health.
