There are some people who tan by just sitting outside for an hour. Some people never need to touch sun screen a day in their life. Some people just have the perfect skin tone that will never burn, peel, or crack. Lucky them, am I right?
If you get sunburnt frequently, then your life during the summer is probably just a little bit more of a struggle than other peoples. You feel the pain, literally and figuratively, every single time the sun comes out.
If you're one of these people, these 15 truths of being prone to sunburn will accurately describe your summer struggles:
1. You never go anywhere without your sunscreen.
2. You can literally feel yourself burning as soon as you step into the sun.
3. You've experienced 1st and maybe even 2nd-degree sunburns in your life so far.
