I was in my car for about 20 minutes, and I got burnt. I can see the outline of my sunglasses,
To all those people that like to tan:
Many people go to tanning salons to get a "base tan" before they go on a beach vacation.
The idea is that a few sessions of indoor tanning will protect them from burning in the sun.
But there's no proof that this is true. The risks of tanning far outweigh the unproven benefits of the base tan. Ultraviolet light, whether from the sun or a sunlamp damages your skin.
Repeated exposure increases the risk of premature skin aging and skin cancer. The best way to protect your skin from the sun at the beach and at home is to use sunscreen with an SFP of 15 or higher. Sunscreens that contain zinc oxide or titanium dioxide stay on longer and are especially good for water sports.
Other tips for protecting your skin: Avoid midday sun. Wear sun-protective clothing such as hats with broad brims.

From a PharmAssist article I read today.
Also I just read that the "SPF" only indicates the amount of UVB protection a sunscreen produce will offer, NOT UVA. (Though that may be listed separately...
but note: An approved rating system to measure UVA protection has not been approved at this time!

I've been reading up on this shit of late, because of my natural tendency/inkling to get burned and not worry about it overly.
Obviously this is bad and I should stop. But everyone who is tanning needs to realise how bad that is for them too!
Overexposure to ultraviolet radiation shows itself as:
- a tan or sunburn
- wrinkling of the skin after long-term exposure
- skin cancer and cataracts
Found out that very simply put, UVB rays = sunburning rays
UBA rays = aging rays

Hmmm, see, I am uber pale, and everything, minus the Jergens has left an awkward discoloration. This stuff seems pretty cool, but for 32$ i'd have to see it on someone. Have any before / after pics?
