I use either the Neutrogena Erin mentioned or Clinique.<br /><br />My teaspoon of Native American blood means that the hair on my legs grows back very slowly, but it grows slowly over my fair Irish skin. I got a burn on my upper chest running a camera atop a silver topped production truck on an overcast Labor Day in 1994. If you look close there is still a faint line from it today. It was painful enough that I learned my lesson well!Nanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06376476093305279684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3919858889505423494.post-41905400738988517392012-07-11T13:46:49.805-05:002012-07-11T13:46:49.805-05:00DOH!

However, growing up, I NEVER had to wear sunscreen, as I had inherited my dad's beautifully tanning skin (he's German). However, as pregnancy progresses, the Norwegian in me had won over...and despite my REAPPLYING sunscreen every 70 minutes on Saturday, I am crispy. <br /><br />AND THEN (!), I applied some pain killer spray, which apparently my pregnant skin is now ALLERGIC to....which ended up in a rash on top of the burn! I'm a hot mess.<br /><br />Correction: I'm now blistery! And popping...and peeling. Gross. Just really gross.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05472478935210732116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3919858889505423494.post-46696611424216095122012-07-11T09:47:07.504-05:002012-07-11T09:47:07.504-05:00I'm a fair skinned redhead and a Florida nativ...I'm a fair skinned redhead and a Florida native. My favorite sunscreen that only takes 2 minutes to apply is Neutrogena Fresh Cooling Spray in spf 30. With it on, you'd never know I set foot into the sunshine. Great for the health of my skin, not always so good when you want to be a color other than translucent. ;)Erinhttp://dreamingwithmidnite.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3919858889505423494.post-71586458118692256652012-07-11T08:40:38.336-05:002012-07-11T08:40:38.336-05:00I forget the sunscreen also.

When it comes to cheekbones, the Native American wins. When it comes to sensitive, easily-burning skin, the Danish wins every single time. I get it!!!<br />http://amysreallife.wordpress.comAmyhttp://amysreallife.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
