I am currently on a trip to the British Isles and remembered that what always struck me the most about these people was the quality of their skin. A lot of other things really haven't gone their way, but the skin is remarkable. It has something to do with the air because after a couple days in Ireland my skin starts to look good too. I have decided that I want to be surrounded by people with lovely skin. There is something so calming and refreshing about it.
It also makes me wonder whether if people whose ancestors are from different places were to go back to those places, if they too would have lovely skin. It seems likely because the evolutionary value of adult acne combined with dryness seems quite low indeed. But, how to do it when you are a mix of things? Can you go to any of the places your ancestors were from? The most dominant? Or would all your ancestors have to have come from the same place for it to work? Only the dutiful work of scientists will tell us.
