Sunbeds...

I prefer to stay pale and interesting. If I am ever tempted by sunbeds, I just look at 'before and after' pictures of Brigette Bardot (sp?). I probably don't look right being so pale, but I wuldn't look right being haggard and wrinkly before my time either.:)
 
My neighbours must think I'm strange because I don't sit out in the sun the minute it appears. I prefer to stay indoors with all the windows open. I have burnt too many times & learned my lesson
 
I love to sit in the sun and hate being cold. I really shouldn't be living in this country. I do take care to cover myself in some good suncream factor 15 and above. When abroad I will usually get under a sunshade for a while.:D I tend to find that suncreams make good moisturisers and always wear SPF 15 on my face, even in winter, or a moisturiser containing SPF.
 
I got a decent tan in Spain recently but I always put cream on;and a tan intensifier by Piz Buin;it's expensive but keeps the tan for longer and moisturises too.My daughter had factor 60 on some days;20 and 25 on other and still her scalp got burnt when she was in the pool.Not much you can do about that really as her hat kept floating off!

I have a load of sunbed sessions that a mate bought me for Xmas,I will use them eventualy but it's not the same as a good bask!
 
Well i must say my arms are looking pretty tanned with the sun around but after being on the sunbed my chest is a bit sore and a bit red. That'll teach me.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend mick, you never really think about the consequences until it happens.

I didn't have any lotion or cream on cos it never occured to me but if I were to go on the sunbed or sun shower again then I will make sure I use sun lotion.

Thanks for all the advice
