Various indicators representing skin characteristics such as skin hydration, sebum excretion rate, lightness, andpH are different depending on environmental and genetic factors. However, they are absolute skin indicators and are differentfrom skin characteristics that a person recognizes. Based on this fact, many recent studies have been mainly conductingresearches on perspective changes according to changes of absolute skin. This study was proposed not only to find outdifferences on skin colors of asian by nations, but also to find out whether there was any difference in skin brightnessthey perceive depending on actual skin color changing. As many as 410 subjects of three Asia nations were participatedin this study, and investigated their responses on skin brightness using questionnaire, which was answered their skin colorin three different levels. It was also were analyzed how actual skin brightness were changed depending on their perceivedskin color changes of subjects. There was a trend showing that the brightness of the actual skin color was increased whenparticipants felt their skin color got brighter regardless of their nationalities. However, there were some differences in colorbetween perceived color and actual color. In addition, there was a different aspect by nations in changes of skin rednessand skin yellowness. In conclusion, it was revealed that factors which help people to perceive their own skin brightnesswere not based on absolute skin brightness, but on different criteria depending on where they are from.
