D'après le Grand Larousse, les termes "mauvais teint", "faux teint" et "petit teint" sont peu usités. Néanmoins on peut rendre la notion en français en employant les antonymes "grand teint" ou "bon teint". Par exemple: Les tissus qui ne sont pas grand teint (...) doivent être lavés séparément à l'eau froide. (Traduction de Bristol-Myers Products Canada Inc.) 2, record 1, French, - mauvais%20teint
