mate it's £5-10 for a 200ml bottle I'd hardly call that cheap

Cheap is not the case everywhere. In Germany it's cheap, in the Netherlands it's much more expensive and in Croatia a bottle is like 25 Euro

Clearly you've never met someone like my wife.

"ball of fire"

Haha, no no. You threw down with a gigantic source of cell destroying radiation. The fire did no harm.

So let me tell y'all about the crazies I work with. I burn easily, and there is very little shade, so I store sunscreen everywhere. My desk, the bathroom, my bag, the car, the office supply closet, etc. I often use it and offer to my colleagues when anyone needs to go out for a while.

We got a new guy on the team, he's going out, I suggest he take some sunscreen. He tells me that sunscreen is poison and that you don't really need it as long as you don't wear sunglasses. He tells me that it's wearing sunglasses that actually causes you to burn because your eyes don't get as much sun so your brain doesn't send the right chemicals out to protect your skin.

Every English tourist in Australia.

I'm just stayin inside

as a man I have the primal urge to pick a fight with the giant ball of fire in the sky, I lost this time but one day.

Not wearing sunscreen and getting a sunburn is a psyop to get men to buy more aloe vera.

On the other hand, what bullshit is it that my stupid human body can't survive being outdoors without medicinal cream. My ancestors would be ashamed.

I would wear suncream more often, but:

1. I'm allergic to something in most brands of suncream so if I run out I'm having to deal with rashes all over where I used it.
2. I hate how it makes me feel slimy after using it

There's this Loreal suncream spray I like that I can't seem to find that feels like water and when it's dry, it doesn't feel like you have suncream on. It's perfect for me! I'm not allergic to it either so I can actually go in the sun without turning red and blotchy!

If the cream wasn't such a goddamn sensory nightmare...
UPF clothes FTW

It's actually irritating to me that the sun is bombarding us with ionizing radiation

(I know, not the same intensity) but think about the amount of precautions we take before turning on a UV lamp. Or before turning on a very bright LED which you are not supposed to look directly at. Well, neither you should look directly at the sun, but you get the idea

In a perspective, sun is so radioactive it can even decay paint and plastic! It can literally cook you alive and make your skin fall in pieces. This just seems usual to us because we were born with it, people would freak the hell out if a medical procedure had the same side effects

Look, I can make a right wing campaign out of this! BAN THE SUN SAVE YOUR KIDS FROM 800T (Terahertz) RADIATION

i get burnt with multiple layers of sun lotion

>be me
>white as everliving fuck
>put on 60 spf sun screen, as you should, and set a timer for an hour and a half to reapply, earlier than the recommended 2 hours
>alarm goes off, reapply
>STILL GET SUNBURNED

My excuse is that the weather was predicted as "cloudy" when we left in the morning. When we were on the trip, though, the sun was burning down to extinct humanity instead.

If you hate the feel of sunscreen like I do, check out UPF clothing 👍

If you spend 8 hours in the sun, the sunscreen doesn't seem like it helps entirely.

The worst is when is a cloudy Summer day and you're like there's no sun mf, no need to sunscreen! But you still get burned the fuck out.

But it's gross :C

(summer sunshine is also gross even without sunburns, though)

Pour one out for the back of my calves. Every summer I forget.
