Mind you, it is not a name brand, but my kids used the same and Kendra is fairer skinned than I, and got a little bit of rosy cheeks.

We were out in the water for bout 4.5hrs, out of the water for maybe 45mins to eat lunch and dinner. I never usually burn on my arms.... I would say this is the first time that I've burnt on my forearms..... My lower half is fine, its just from waist up

Maybe you need SPF 125
I saw that in Malaysia - I was surprised that they went up that high. I have been told that in NZ SPF50 is not enough

I was about to go to sleep when my lovely little Sassy decided to upset my water glass on my nightstand..of course that meant I had to check in on-line for a couple of minutes before going to sleep after-all..
I came, I saw, and am now heading back to bed....


Chris hope your burn feels better soon.

Nighty Night Night....

Honestly, as I get older, and experiences like this, I think my beach days are going to be limited....as in: bring an umbrella or not spend as much time in the sun/water, or put a light cover on.

It's ironic, up untill 3yrs ago, I never wore sunscreen.... well, maybe the odd time when I was spending the day outside.... once I started getting alot of tattoo work done, I religiously put sunscreen on my tattoos, which lead to my whole upper body, as well as my legs. I seldom burned w/o sunscreen, now I burn with an effort to repeatedly put it on


I don't think I've seen higher than SPF 50 here, but I will have a look prior to going to the beach again

Thanks Susan, I haven't been watching tv lately so I wasn't sure when the new season started.

Goodnight
Hope you have a better sleep tonight.

I got a tad rosy the other day when I went to Martinborough for the day and it's Winter here!
not a laughing matter though.

I'm watching Rosemary Shrager. Does anyone else watch this??

Just started raining here and I am happy to see it, way to hot today to do anything but a least now there's a nice cool breeze coming in the window and even the kitties are tearing around the house because they like it as well...
