I usually get the Coppertone Sport spray stuff. Or Water Babies. Both seem to stay on longer and are nice and thin when you spray it on.

Nope. German, French, and English. Pretty WASPy. Not exactly anything to write home about.

I like the Water Babies spray lotion for my kids. That stuff is great.

Neutrogena makes some good spray too. They also have a sunburn relief lotion that's the shite that I can almost never find.

Belle, I guess I'm not good at this, I was trying to be sarcastic. I tease my wife that she has 3 months off, when it's really seven weeks or so. Sorry.....

I use a double coat of 100 spf on the left arm whenever I am out at the beach or pool or whatever. Anywhere else doesn't really matter Italian genes overtook the Irish ones for the tint of my skin. So it soaks up all the sun without much negative effects other than browning alot.

Take every European nationality that is very very white, put it together, and that's what I am.

I burn once, then usually tan. I hate being pale. I don't like seeing my veins.

I don't tan whatsoever... I just burn. And then burn again.

Curse my Irish forefathers.

Have enough native american in me to only burn once and even then it turns to tan. Never really had a horrible sun burn.

This is me. I refuse to go to the tanning bed anymore though. I did enough of that in high school and college. I feel that spending pretty much every weekend at the lake in the summer provides more than enough sun damage.
