'''Melanin''' is a [[pigment]] found in human skin and eyes. The more melanin in the skin, the darker it becomes. Melanin production is stimulated by exposure to the [[ultraviolet]] light of the sun (see also [[tanning salon]]). Dark skin provides protection from [[sunburn]] and other harmful effects of overexposure to sunlight.  Light skin is better able to absorb sunlight and manufature [[Vitamin D]].
