What color was your skin before?

Assuming for now that your skin is normally pink-tan-white, then yellowish-ness can be a result of eating too many carrots or other orange vegetables, or it could be because of jaundice, meaning something is wrong in your body.

Jaundice most often makes the whites of your eyes turn yellow. If this is the case, see a doctor right now!
