Cicely Pearl Blair FRCP (née Hopton; 20 May 1926 – 14 February 2005) was a British dermatologist.
She discovered that people who had albinism did not get blackheads, as they did not produce melanin, the pigment that makes the comedones black.
She also wrote about rashes caused by brown-tailed moth caterpillars.
After her retirement, she turned her hand to art and especially silver smithing, fashioning a "chain of office" for the president of the British Association of Dermatologists.
