And I hate it!



I was outside for maybe an hour today and I hadn't planned on being outside so I hadn't properly applied sunblock and now my neck, chest and the top of my back are redder than a tomato.



Do you burn easily?

No. I tan.
But I do get hot real easily.

awww ( i would hug you but it may hurt )

use vinigar compresses and then use noxema or aloe

no... i get really red looking after being out for hours then the next day it's usually brown

but my red headed children burned bad and quickly

First the "Life is Shit" thread & now this.
Enuff with all the negativity.

Lets concentrate on your non-burned areas of your body.

My italian skin hardly ever burns.

It's all the olive oil in my blood.

Guess this is also my response to the "Are you a secretive flirt" thread.

my face burns if i'm out for a while without any sunblock. it can be embarrassing.

i burn 2 easy ,i live in england and went 2 cali not
long ago and didnt bother with sunblock a few times
i learnt the hard way i burnt my feet an legs badly
yogurt helps take the burnin away (a little messy though)

I rarely burn...most of the time I just get really brown. That works for me since I am living in Arizona and it is like the surface of the Sun in the summertime.

I'm going to have to go out for aloe soon, I think. I've been applying regular lotion about every 30 minutes or so, but it's still super hot to the touch.

I kept steering my friends into the shade, but the damage was done. I should know better. I should have just gone home today. How sad is it that I can't even enjoy a nice sunny afternoon outside with some friends without the proper preparation?

I have to be outside for 6-8 hours in very strong sunshine to burn, and at that it is burned very little. It quickly turns to a dark tan in a day or so.

Really White People.

if you are male and squeamish cross your legs and just scroll past this post!!











apparently my grandfather had skin cancer removed from...
his penis!!
how does this happen to an innocent dirt farmer who would be 112 if he was still alive??
i am damn sure he was never nude except for his bath before church

All over?

I seldom burn, thank God.

no.

Just where my neckline plunged. I was wearing a long-sleeve shirt, even so my arms are fine, but the backs of my hands are a bit pink and all freckled. And I always wear sunblock on my face, that's just part of my morning routine, so at least my face is fine.

Not for much longer.

Sun is forbidden for my skin. Or I'll end black from naevus, or scars all over my body, or skin cancer...

Thank god the face is fine.

You're ruining my game on this site.

jerseykrs said:

Awww, isn't that cut. You think you have game.

Aw, that sucks. I hate that crispy feeling.

Cool compresses, aloe (skip the regular lotion--if you want, you can follow the aloe with a thin layer of vaseline or cocoa butter), and anti-inflammatories (asprin, ibuprofen, naproxen) for a couple of days.

I burn really fast, generally peel right back to pale. I feel ya.

I found something fun in the back of my medicine cabinet that's working well. It's lotion w/a bit of menthol in it to draw the heat out. It's not SUPER hot anymore.

CarrieMpls said:

Good.

Yeah, I've used solarcaine before, which I think has aloe and lidocaine. Anything to make it feel better.

Poor wittle white girl..hhe. oh, sorry, tht might hurt ya.

the sun is very bad for you. another reason not to like summer!



poor carrie

I got very sunburned in California.

I was at an outdoor pool for all of 2 hours?

I was like a damn lobster!

I kinda forgot what it was like to get a sunburn though, hadn't had one in over 3 years.

No I keep a tan year round- I live in Georgia! But I did get sunburned in Mexico in 2004. The tops of my shoulders were something nasty. It was October, the sun in Mexico is intense!
