I hate visits to the Doctor lol. The bummer thing is that I just started having this reaction this year. I am so pale normally I look forward to my summer tan to give my skin some color lol. Darn sun anyways !! The more you stay out of the sun, the more youthful looking you will be when you get older. I followed that advice and even though I'm 44 everyone I meet never give me a day over 35! That is cool, because I don't plan on growing old gracefully lol. I am told that I look younger than I am, I hope that lasts for a while lol !!!

Well the sun exposure thing doesn't work for me, maybe it'll work for you. I burn every single time. I get the giant weeping blisters. I run from cover to cover, trying to avoid the burning rays of pain!!! I may be turning into a Vampire! LOL >^..^< Luckily I don't burn that bad. I am sorry you do. I couldn't imagine not being able to enjoy the summer sun. The reaction I had was pretty bad this time however, and it only affected areas that don't normally get sun exposure. I think the ozone depletion problem really sucks !!!!!

man i HATE sunburn!!!! its the middle of winter here in aus, i went to the markets..i stood out there for half an hour..i was wearing jeans and a long sleeved tshirt so only my face got burnt..but its terrible! i use the suncream, (but i didnt bother tuday, usually i forget, but its winter!!!) but always forget to reapply it..i really should learn, the joys of being bright red and boiling hot in summer at night trying to sleep... and im really pale, so i burn, go red, peal, and then go back to normal, and i swear i have more freckles lol..
i use aloe a bit, its nice and cold, but really sticky, especially if its straight from the plant, ughh

Well luckily I can go out at 7-9 am and all night. I usually don't burn running to the car going to the Mall! Just must avoid open markets, parks without big trees, swimming, and amusement parks. I can live with that! Just keep putting on the sun screen! >^..^<

Im actually the complete opposite of that, Im just about unburnable it seems. Im out in the sun a great amount, whether its for work or just because I adore being outdoors, and I can honestly say that Ive never had a serious sunburn in my life(which is saying something when you work in it the entire day on a summer day here in Oklahoma). The worst sunburn I ever get is maybe getting a little red on my nose or cheeks for a day or two, but Ive never gotten anything worse. On the downside, though, it has given me a horrendous farmers tan...theres literally a staight line on my arm where my shirt sleeves end.*shudders* But yes, if this just started, its probably something new your using or something youve introduced recently into your diet.
