    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!

      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.

      Thanks. I completely forgot that the standard suntan or sunburn is caused by UV rays. A fireplace doesn't create UV rays.

            @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.

            Oh FFS this isn't the benzene thing again, is it? Benzene is a trace contaminant in everything from the air you breathe to the water you drink. The highest number Valisure came up with was 6 ppm in a sunscreen sample, that's 0.0006%. Even if you decided to inject the whole bottle of sunscreen directly into your veins it would be a fraction of your total exposure for the day.

            Using people's fear of cancer to scare them away from effective cancer prevention measures is fucking shameful, do better.

                My wife can spend all day in the sun and turn a nice shade of brown.

                Not me. There is no "tan" for me. It's either pasty white or lobster with no middle ground whatsoever.

                I turn a lovely tan. It just happens after two weeks of bright red and screamy and a few days of pale and peeling.

                        @Railcar8095 With respect to vaccines and autism, there is a correlation but as the old saying goes casuality is not causality until it is. In my view it warrants research. And I've got no doubt that the number of vaccines they are giving toddlers and children these days is overloading their immune systems.

                        Autist here who loves to read research about autism.

                        There is absolutely no correlation between autism and vaccines. Neurodivergence cannot be caused by immune system problems.

                        People are born autistic with a brain programmed by their DNA to form alternative neurological connections compared to neurotypicals. A neurotypical cannot be turned/mutated into being autistic and vice versa.

                        The only correlation that exists is that people who are neurodivergent are prone to develop some unhealthy habits (from extra stress, sleep schedules, and being a picky eater etc) which in turn can lower your immune system.

                            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.

                            Then don't buy the fancy spray bottles, but the big one that lasts for a year or three?

                                    I'm not buying the fancy expensive shit. But the cheap stuff fills pores and creates pimples. Also, don't use the one from last year, it has an expiration date. The protection goes down significantly.
