One of the users on Ta was telling pure Levantines (Levantines who are not mixed with Western and Southern Europeans) are darker than pure Iranians (Iranians who are not mixed with South Asians). How true is it?

If pure Levantines, then they're also not mixed with Arabians. In that case, I think it's around the same.
Levantines are lighter than Iranians in most cases.
Sikeliot is this you?
EDIT: i am considering the general population of levant and iran, defining what is pure levantine and pure iranic person and how they look doesnt make much sense
Regarding skin tone, people in the northern iran in general are more pale, in the center are the same skin color, these from south of iran might be darker due to large south asian admix
Regarding facial features, levantines have more exotic semitic features than iranians

My intuition says it's the opposite,pure levantines are closer to something "Cypriot-like"...
You need to define Levantine and Iranian. To be honest I think that the native Levantines (Rum Christians) are much more lighter than Persians.
