For those saying they get badly sunburnt several times a summer, or once every year...STOP IT! Use sunblock, stay in the shade when you can, and keep covered up...you're really setting yourself up for skin cancer with that much repeated UV damage (even one bad sunburn can be enough, but repeatedly doing it is even worse). Besides, it'll also leave you all wrinkled at an early age to keep damaging your skin that much.

I always wear sunblock but unfortunately until they invent spf 1000 I will still burn badly. Yes I am that pale :(

Not only do you have to worry about sunburn, but in the heat we're having a lot of places, you can get heat stroke.

You have to keep reapplying...that number just means it'll protect you that many times longer than the amount of time you can normally stay out in the sun without sunblock, so when you can only last about 5 min before turning crispy, that SPF 45 only gives you a couple hours before turning crispy, and way less if you're sweating it off.

I'm the same way, and have learned from experience to reapply it at least every hour if I'm out in the sun all day, and every time I get out of the water if I'm swimming. I was sitting next to another co-worker one day, and he commented that I really needed to get out and get some sun...compared to his tanned skin, I looked like I was glowing white. That's when I rolled up my sleeve and showed my tan line on my arm...that WAS tan!
