Back to work tomorrow, unfortunately.....
I do wear gloves! I don't have the fingertip tan, at least not noticeably. My hands are definitely lighter than my arms. (My left arm also has a stripe from my watch band.) I also have something of a gradient on my arms and legs from the different-length sleeves and shorts...
