Keep the Sun off the bits where you
really wouldn't want any skin problems is best I reckon.
You're right Mart, I got burnt to a crisp once when I fell asleep in the sun at Newquay, I was about 13 at the time on holiday with Mum and Dad. I never forgot the pain I went through for the next few days. I've sat in the sun since and been sunburnt but never as bad as that.
These days I just allow my legs and arms to get sunburnt, and very gradual.
I always keep the rest well covered, especially the sensitive (
) bits....
