Sunburn

I do and I try not to because my mother passed away from skin cancer, I dont want to go out that way. The more times you sunburn, especially in the 1st 20 years of life, the more higher risk you are to get cancer when you are older.
I have very pale skin and I burn ALL the time! I NEVER go brown.
Having been very badly sunburnt (many times) as a child I now wear factor 50 the minute the sun shows its face. I also have a huge bottle of after sun, which I slap on continuously when ever I get burnt, which I do very easily.
I would recommend the old adage of slip, slop, slap.
Slip on a t-shirt.
Slop on some suncream.
Slap on a hat.
If you still get burnt, slop big dollops of aftersun on all the burnt areas.
Some people recommend vinegar. I tried that. Didn't work. And you smell like an old trout!
Hope you feel better soon. Sunburn is the pits.

I burn for the first time in a season going out in the sun. After that, I tan.
One really does have to be careful about the sun. I see that now in my aging father who now has to have a melonoma removed every other week. Luckily none have been cancerous or serious. In that generation there was no emphasis on protecting yourself from the sun, you just worked outside all day pretty much unprotected.
Coincidentally, the last couple of days here have been the first real hot ones for this Spring/Summer season. Totally loving it

I burn...meh medium i guess. I mean, i don't really feel burnt until the next day, but sometimes if i stay out at the beach too long then yeah, i get burnt. I recommend aloe and a nice relaxing day inside(+cold showers
