pastiness
Unhealthy pale appearance
Pastiness is the quality of being pasty—pale and unhealthy-looking, like paste.
It describes skin that lacks color or vitality: The pastiness of his complexion suggested he hadn't been outdoors in weeks.
The word can also describe texture resembling paste: thick, sticky, and unappetizing.
