He's not a pretty boy, this one! Flourescent lighting doesn't improve his looks, but what lighting would flatter someone with a corned-beef complexion? Perhaps none. Maybe Darkness :-)

Strip lighting is long fluorescent tubes that tend to cast a yellowish light. It's unflattering because the yellow light makes your skin look unhealthy.

The lighting doesn't help him look good. It makes his bad features look worse.
