- There is generally much less pigment in the soles of the feet and palms
- of the hands than elsewhere. Try it--go out and get a deep tan and then
- you'll notice the same difference between the tops and soles of your
- feet and the backs and palms of your hands.
-
- I think the amount of the difference varies from person to person though.
