The present invention provides a skin test method for predicting the formation of spots in the skin. This method is characterized by judging skin to be susceptible to spot formation in the case expression of genes consisting of MLSTD1, MOGAT1, FADS2, FADS1, HSD3B1, ELOVL3, BG1, PECR, FABP7, FA2H, HAO2, ALOX15B, PDE6A, LZTS1, SEC14L4, BAMBI, CIDEA, TERE1, GAL, THRSP, INSIG1 or CUTL2 in the epidermis is accelerated, or the expression of genes consisting of RBBP6, MSMB, WIF1, ANKRD12, FLG, SYNE2, SCEL, NKTR or AMBP in the epidermis is decreased as compared with normal expression in the epidermis.
