Nice thread....

I put on the spf all year round, have a spare hat/cap in the bag for break times, i wear a summer Buff to keep it off my neck and a T-shirt on for most of the day. The dry oil stuff is great.. just remember to re-apply and the SPF reduces each year so buy new each year... and store it out of the sun....

No gayness in avoiding skin cancer mate.

 

Use decent factor (20-40) Ambre Solaire here, avoids the need to re-apply.

 

The secret is to slap it on early and rub it in well before you get minging!

 

Love the smell of it as well. Convinces me we might have a summer.

 

Was going to say the very same thing mark,Noithing gay about it.

 

I "slip,slap, slop" almost everytime the sun comes out for the same thing treeson said.

 

You guys would be better off with buying a raincoat anyway..........:001_tt2:

Man up.

 

According to Radio 4 last night, Sun cream = Not enough sun light on your skin = Vitamin D deficiency = Cancer of the colon.

Choose your cancer.......

Not that I know what I’m talking about. I’m just misquoting.

Dont know if its been mentioned yet but its UVB that burns you and is known to cause cateracts, And UVA that causes ageing.

 

So check what you buy does protect against both, Some only do UVB.

 

I should never get cateracts as i wear sunnys all year around:001_smile:

 

like you guys know what "the sun" is.....:lol:
