I realized I had grown up when I no longer purchased sunscreen below 30

Using SPF 100 sunblock, I can go all day.

Yeah I had a buddy who tried to keep from getting too much sun because he didn't want to get darker. He was like a vampire almost when it came to the Sun.

Would you say that you've been refried?

Without, maybe 10 minutes. I'm pretty fair skinned but I'm pretty vigilant about sunscreen and no tanning bed since my Mom had melanoma when she was 16. When I wear it and reapply often, I can stay for a few hours.

I have no idea, I just stay indoors and pay someone else to handle the yard work.

The OP is obviously a ginger.

Hours, but I am Alibamu, Caddo, and Irish, so during the summer months I have freckles come out of nowhere and melanin that my body apparently stores up from Oct-Mar makes me develop a severe tan line after a weekend of yardwork.

I believe it depends more on your usual exposure to the sun than your heritage.

I live in the sun everyday with zero shade. Have been for 25 years. Thus after the first few weeks of April, I do not burn often. I do wear sunscreen but i am also very tan most of the year.

But when I vacation in the caribbean, I will burn there if I dont put sunscreen on when I first arrive. After a few days, I am usually good without it.

It depends on the area you are in and your base

10-15 minutes. It's the curse of having Irish Vampire skin.

That probably has more to do with the fact that you're covered in fur.
