Skin, sun and tan
In general, I sunbathe very badly, but I want a beautiful tan, what should I take with me from creams? At home I sunbathe with oil, I'm 0. I'm white, but I never burn out. I don’t smear with protective creams, but they say you need to go there (((

be sure to use creams, here even in cloudy weather you burn. I advise my people to start with creams +35 protection and already lower if there is no tan at all, but usually they don’t use below +30

if you have snow-white skin, like me, then do not sunbathe at all after 10 am. Only the morning sun, and then excursions and shopping. I also have an allergy to the sun, and I have noticed that this allergy intensifies if I use sunscreen creams. Therefore, during the day I am always in tunics, shirts, trousers that cover the skin. And, of course, a hat and glasses. I don't use creams.

Thanks for the advice! Thank you very much! I’ll be shopping, I didn’t find the cream today - only shorts and glasses)))

With my swarthy skin and s / s cream (protection factor - 20), I got burned twice in March (taking into account the fact that I hardly lay on the beach). And with fair skin, so in general - the cream is at least 35. And 30 minutes in the sun - no more. Otherwise, you will be left without skin.
p.s. By the way, I burned out in the water, so the sea will not save you from burning.

In the water, in order not to burn out (absolutely imperceptible to the bather), they bathe in T-shirts or even with long sleeves. Awesome creams, gels, etc. with good sun protection factors you can easily buy in Thailand - in markets, in pharmacies.

I’ve come to the conclusion that you can buy everything there. Otherwise, I’m sitting here racking my brains where to buy a cheerful tunic now, I think you can buy it there upon arrival ... or am I wrong?
аватар Pachok
You can., right on the beach, aunts wear. It won’t work for going out, but for beach purposes - that’s it.

I also have very fair skin, if it’s wrong to sunbathe - just like beets and everything is covered, I start sunbathing the first day with a 50th cream, then you can not be afraid of the sun. On the second or third day I turn to 30-ku. After 5-7 days (look at the condition of the skin) I switch to tanning oils with protection 10. I come home pleasantly swarthy.

My skin is soooo dark by nature, the tan adheres well and lasts a long time, many places where I rested, on different seas ... But in Tae I got burned specifically in cloudy weather, the sky was completely in the clouds! So use s / s creams! You need it. You won’t notice how you burn. I bought Aloe gel for burns there (in a green tube), a cool thing! relieves pain immediately and burns, anointed for two days and everything went away ...

Looking forward to this question! 100 points! I have dark skin from nature and origin, and so, in Tae, I didn’t sunbathe at all, I just blushed, it even seems to me that I only spoiled my natural beauty. So, tanning for two weeks in Tae did not work at all, so, there was only one redness, well, the tan did not go down !!! Perhaps the proximity to the equator affects, perhaps the very unpleasant, salty and dirty water of the Gulf of Thailand somehow acted on the skin, while there is not a single soul on the beach. No one had the same reviews from friends - a good, beautiful tan! I even saw burnt blacks, for fun! )))
In short, at least put a ton of creams on yourself, but you won’t get a tan, there’s such a foul climate there (the sea, the sun, I don’t know what, emphasize the right one!)))
Good luck and don't get burned! )))

The water of the Gulf of Thailand is clean and transparent. But not in Pattaya. Swimming in Pattaya, in general, I do not advise anyone.
Sunburn, with the correct use of sunscreen, is better than local production, it turns out good. It is better to sunbathe in the shade, after the beach use special Aloe Vera gels, local or American firms "Banana Bot".
But, in general, if tanning is an end in itself, then it is good to take special vitamins containing beta-carotene (provitamin A) and vitamin E before sunbathing. Vetoron, for example. The tan is darker, more even and lasts longer. You can actively eat carrots with olive oil, the effect will also be.

I don’t know .. I got a normal tan ... I had a wonderful tan, no worse than the Egyptian, Turkish and Emirati ones, and even more so our Black Sea one. And friends all come with a beautiful tan, maybe it all depends on the type of skin ... and on the body, but not like the dirty water of the Gulf of Thailand! But what you can easily get burned is YES !!! Well, you need to use protective creams first of all for PROTECTION !!! Sunscreens protect against UVA/UVB !!! but not for a beautiful tan!
аватар Angelika55
Wherever I went, I never abused sunbathing in the early days. Only in the shade and only with protective creams. Otherwise, later on you won’t think about a beautiful tan .. but how not to lose your health at all ... And my friend, fair-skinned, always goes to the solarium 4 times before a trip, so that the skin adapts and subsequently does not burn out. And it lights up just fine.
аватар betty90
I can't go to the solarium
аватар Pachok
Solariums are evil!
аватар Angelika55
Duc ... if you can’t go to the solarium, then you can’t sunbathe on the beach ... Or only with sunscreen .. or not sunbathe at all ... You need to be careful here ... Direct sunlight, especially after 12 hours, is also very dangerous...
аватар Angelika55
Well, I think .. maybe a friend was sunbathing in tanning beds in vain then, since a solarium is evil?
аватар Stanka
Citizen vacationers, a solarium, of course, is evil (they say it provokes breast cancer (this is for F :))) and skin ... brrr ...), but once or twice a year before traveling to the south has not bothered anyone yet. And I have a very bad experience from sunburn in Tae ... well, not in the sense that I burned out, but simply DID NOT tan! The tan turned out to be some kind of weak and brick-red color, very ugly, so I broke my whole head, because of what? :/

The cream is simply necessary for people with snow-white skin! And the higher the SPF, the better. In the first days I always use 50, and when the skin tans, then 20-30. In order to prepare the skin for intense sun, I advise everyone to buy Bioactive Carotene beta-carotene capsules at the pharmacy. This is a concentrated carrot extract that protects the skin and makes the tan more even.

And for me, on the contrary, no matter how rest, I treat sunburn after it. The tan sticks to me quickly. Knowing this, I always take Panthenolspray with me on vacation, and apply it directly to burns. True, there are a lot of fakes now, but you need to buy a medical one, with a smiley face, from a European manufacturer. It contains dexpanthenol, which heals and restores the skin well. I don't go on holiday without this spray.
аватар ilya.bocharov.71
we, too, men love to sunbathe, but not without enthusiasm)))
аватар svetlana.kubrack
So no one argues that men also love to sunbathe, my husband has figured out something this year. I thought that on the already existing tan, the sun would not "stick" so much, and on the very first day I burned out on vacation. The skin turned red, sunburns formed. Well, I foresaw such a situation, and when collecting the first-aid kit, I put Panthenolspray in it, which we already wrote about above. By the way, I also take it based on dexpanthenol, with a smiley face on the bottle. Also, the label Made in Europe has appeared on the packaging since this year. So he helped my husband in a few days of use, the burns healed.
