Paper-skinned Chinese woman has no use for notebooks

Asmita PrasadOct 7 2008

The next time you are out complaining to the whole wide world about how sensitive your skin is, perhaps you would be better off sparing a thought for Huang Xiangji. The 50-year-old woman from Chengdu, China, suffers from a rare skin condition that is called artificial urticaria which causes her skin to retain impressions and etching almost as good as a real notebook. Since the condition causes no problems, Xiangji is able to use her skin as a notepad and even admits to jotting down shopping lists on it on a regular basis! That’s gotta be better than having acne any day right?
