This lady came into the tailor shop we were at. I snapped this pic to show you what ALL the women look like here in Vietnam. Notice the complete lack of skin showing and keep in mind that it's 95 degrees out, clear sky and about 87% humidity.
The people here think the whiter your skin the more beautiful you are. Consequently everyone (well all the ladies at least) wear full face masks, hats, long sleeves and a jacket or hoodie and long pants. This is to keep them as white as possible. Also, most cosmetic products tout their whitening abilities. Crazy.
