I used to love weather like this when I worked at Leeds Uni. Hundreds of attractive female students all wearing next to nothing walking around campus. Now I just have to put up with lots of screaming teenagers who are worried that the sun might affect their fake orange tan :/

SPF50+ is where it's at for you

They say unless its at least SPF 25 its pretty much worthless. They may have increased that to 35 in the last few years. I don't even know why they SELL that crap SPF 6 stuff. It's a waste of money...slather some water on and you get the same results.

I hate to think what i'm going to be like this summer, you'd never believe i used to go the loveliest shade of golden brown when i was younger and didn't seem to even need sun block (of course i got it slathered on anyway).
Sadly Eddie i think you are right, i'm going to be taking 30 and 50 away with me, i can't risk the pain and discomfort this summer, need to be able to move lol.

Lana, you're right 25+ or it is pretty much useless in warmer climates. But this is Scotland

even with 15 on i should be going backwards and getting paler.

I don't ever wear sunscreen (well not never - I did in the sahara, and when taking part in a 3 week yacht race around the med) - don't particulalry feel the need for it unless you spend hours sunning yourself - and by the time I spend sunning myself I've already developed a big tan and just put on the bare minimum. I know there's probably a risk, but as long as you're not an idiot in the sun I don't feel the need to really worry that much. I'd never ever tell anyone else not to wear sunscreen though - it's just something my father and I never have bothered with really.
