Interesting and very much true! Carotenoids can change skin colour by making it more yellow, red. I guess it may be a good alternative when using a sunscreen on a daily basis and missing out on some of that tan.
>Here, we tested the effect of dietary supplementation of the carotenoid beta-carotene on facial appearance and health in human males. Beta-carotene supplementation altered skin color to increase facial attractiveness and perceived health. However, we found no effect of beta-carotene on measures of actual health, including oxidative stress, innate immune function, and semen quality. We conclude that although carotenoid-based skin color may be sexually selected in human males, it may not be an honest signal of health.

The research had men take beta carotene supplements from Natural Factors, and at the end of the test have women evaluate attractiveness and perceived health of the subjects. Pic related is a composite of all the men who had taken the test, compared to the placebo group the skin colour of the carotenoid group actually changed over the 12 week period. So it's probably best if you go with supplements.
