An albino person's skin.?!


Question:

An albino person's skin.?

This question is not for perverted jollies so please don't accuse me of it.

I'm curious if the normally pink areas of a person's skin are pink on an albino person. Like the lips, nipples, genital areas. I don't know if that color in the skin is caused by the chemical that albino's lack or just by blood near the surface of the skin.


Answers:

The color of the skin will still vary due to the concentration of boold vessels, and lips and any areas of especially thin skin with lot of blood vessels will still be pink, including the genital areas and inside the mouth. Albino individuals lack melanin, the stuff that gives skin a tan or dark color, including freckles. Albino skin is pale pink-white and tends to be somewhat translucent, so it may appear a bluish color around veins. It also effects eye and hair color, meaning albino irises are pale blue, and hair tends to be white or may appear as a very pale blond.
