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

Hypothetically speaking, will you get sunburnt if you sit near a fire all day?
The heat could dry out your skin, which, if I'm not mistaken, is essentially what a burn is. However, as the other person noted, a sunburn is damage from radiation, not heat. So I think you could stretch the common definition of a burn to call heat induced dry skin a burn but calling it a sunburn would not be accurate.

WTF are those prices. I'd start looking into importing from abroad ...

@bees Actually the UV creams have shown to be themselves carcinogenic, so it's not about to have cancer or not, but how to get it. All things in moderation, including sun, your body does need vitamin d3 which it produces in the presence of UV.
Can you actually avoid vitamin d production if you stay long enough in the sun that you need sunscreen to avoid sunburns?

"ball of fire"
Haha, no no. You threw down with a gigantic source of cell destroying radiation. The fire did no harm.
There's no fire in the sun. Fire is some material oxidizing, and that's not what's happening (or at least not in relevant amounts). What creates the radiation is nuclear fusion.

@rumschlumpel I live close to Seattle. If we're lucky here there might be three days in the year where you can get sunburn. -
...and Florida, and Jamaica, and Mexico, and (I presume) Spain. There is no corner of the earth in which the English will not challenge the mighty Helios until they are as red as the cross of St. George.
*Me in Vitoria, Spain: "You guys get sun?"
Large parts of the north of Spain are basically UK in terms of weather.

Every English tourist in Australia.
In New Zealand the sun feels like it's stabbing you after 10min in summer. I can feel my skin prickling like tiny fire ants.It doesn't take long to burn here. serious respect for the sun and upper atmosphere
there's a hole in my ozone dear lyza, dear lyza..

Mate. I'm a ginger living in New Zealand. Sunburn is an inevitability.
You choose new Zeeland over Australia due to the lack of venomous animals, but forgot to check for unprotected astronomical nuclear reactor in the sky

Baking in the sun risks skin cancer. But people like to be tanned, so cancer is worth it for a good look.

wrote on last edited by [email protected]In the city of Utrecht NL they have free sunblock stations spread around the city. It shows the temp and UV rating. But buying it in store is crazy expensive and often the quality is poor. Some fancy tiny spray bottles go up to 12 euros, only good for 3 to 4 uses. wtf. Imagine being ginger, there's a ginger tax called sunblock.

Why exactly do you think there is UV radiation coming from the sun?

wrote on last edited by [email protected]I buy the store brand from the local supermarket. €2,99 for a 250 ml bottle of SPF 30 and it works great. I never get sunburn, even during multi hour bike rides in the blazing sun.

In the US it's cheap but unregulated and full of shit that's terrible for you. Or you can pay an arm and a leg for stuff that's better but still not up to the standards of most other countries. I learned this by getting a chemical burn in my eye from sunscreen... meant for my face.
The USA is the Wild West when it comes to safety standards of any product.
