If you can see my picture, I am very pale too.
I hated it when I was younger. now I love it.
Can you use a little bit of blulsh powder on your face?

Dear Lena,
I understand that looking pale doesn't please you. Because yes, there is a difference between porcelain skin and just an unhealthy-looking complexion. Do mind what you eat, it is very important for how your skin looks... and don't do sunbaths, they will harm your skin so you might end up with darker and lighter spots.
If make-up is not an option, try a good, though natural selftanner. There are some great products on the market. Nivea (Sunkissed Skin) and Dove have a cream that builds up colour slowly, so it looks all natural, Clarins had a milk which acts in the same way, you can put it on with a cotton. Lancôme has a tanning water which offers a healthy glow immediately and tans naturally. If you prefer not to use a selftanner, choose a tinted moisturizer; it won't look like make-up and it will moisturize your skin like a daycream. Look for local brands, if you can't find the right products where you are, or order online... I know Asia has a thing with whitening, so it might be hard to find products that do just the inverse.
Remember the goal is a natural, healthy glowing complexion, not an orangy face or a skin plastered by make-up. Smiling to yourself and the world will also make you glow a bit...
Good luck!

Some girls would kill for such beautiful pale, porcelain skin! In fact some people actively whiten their skin to try and get it, and many people think it is extremely attractive. So I think you should remember that what you are naturally given often looks the best on you (you did say you look good in photos too!) and that what's different is often most beautiful. So I say, enjoy your skin, and don't forget to wear SPF!

Sorry, either tanning is your only option...UNLESS, yes, perhaps you could apply some makeup to you dark circles and exploit you light features to be actually beautiful.
Go to the link below and see this actress, who is very pale and incredibly beautiful, exploiting her pale features.

Use a bronzer--it with slightly tint your skin and give you a natural glow.

All I can think of is a fake tanning cream, also use bronzing powder on your face.
