It’s mildly sunny! How easily do you burn?

    I think i get about 20mins free. After that, I start burning without protection. I tan pretty well over a few weeks though.

    My old gf could not tan at all, apparently. Pale or Sunburnt were the only options

    I work indoors, so rarely see the sun, so I’m deathly pale.

    I’ll come out on weekends, do some gardening, cut down a tree, etc. and be ok, but go to the beach and I’ll be 🦞

    A week later, it’ll have peeled off and I’ll repeat.

    By the end of the Summer though, I won’t burn as easily and have enouth colour to be classed as having a healthy colour.

    I suspect I’ve got my oriental genes to thank that I tan relatively easily, and don’t burn but rather the tan then turns grim and flakes off after a while if I’ve had too much exposure

    I burn so easily it’s hard to fathom. Anything below factor 20 and I could burn in gentle sun. I basically spend summer sprinting from one patch of shade to the next
