Tan skin= COOKED skin. Fact.
Wait... Are you a nurse?![]()
Tanning is basically sun exposure, but done in a controlled manner.
No, tanning is not basic sun exposure and there is question as to whether 30 min without sunscreen could increase your skin cancer risks. So it's better to get the minimum than to go for that "healthy but I'll look like I have leather for skin when Im 50" look.
You grew up in a country that has sunlight probably 1% of the year. We laugh at people like you who come to disney world looking like ghosts who have red paint streaked on them from their lack of realization their skin can't handle the florida sun WITHOUT sunscreen. You can ALWAYS point out the Europeans, and no not just from their funny clothes and shoes![]()
I have lived 20 years in the sunshine state. I think my vitamin D will be just fine minus the skin cancer risk and old lady skin
Most of my family is from South of France (Catalan). I think I can handle the heat. My offer still stands about the guest house. Come on over, and we'll see who's most bronze.
Having family in France, and LIVING in the arctic are two different things. Bodies adjust and the darkest of people can become pale there. I wasn't born yesterday ya know. And I am half Italian, so I have a natural bronze that gets darker in the sun WITH sunscreen. 50 SPF too. Since I've lived here I really don't get pale. My whole point with this was that you HAVE to limit your exposure without sunscreen. Facts are on my side with that. You are talking about a completely different thing when you are concerned with bronzing your body and keeping it that way. And I BET the jury is still out on your dad and his skin. Is your dad even old enough to see the damage yet?I see those leather skinned lizard people at the beach. The ones who are 60 and look 80. NO THANKS!!!!!!!
Blablabla. My dad is 57.
You're just talk. Come on over and we'll see, Lynn.
