Yes, pilots in World War 2 were easily identifiable in public due to their orange color tones. Babies that are fed a lot of carrots and squash will turn orange. Some 'tanning' pills contain large amounts of carrotine that turn the pigmentation orange.

I can vouch for that. I went to visit my sister one day when my niece was about 10 months old. I was surprised to see that she had an orange tint to her face and hands-- like a bad artificial baby sun tan. I asked my sister "Why is she orange?" and with an exasperated tone my sister replied "BECAUSE ALL THE BABY FOOD HAS CARROTS!" Now years later as a growing child my niece refuses to eat carrots. She hates them.
