What? Sunscreen? YIKES!!! I use nothing and I'm glowing. That's slathering chemicals on yourself. Be careful...

I'm tanner too...I think it's the beta carotene? Do you eat red/orange foods too?

There is a sunscreen database so you can find a good safe one!:) Yours may already be on the list.

I lucked out and the one I have used forever is on the top 10...whew.

Really? I didn't know about that side effect. That's awesome!

do you juice? if you do... drink the juice of about 4-6 tomatoes every day... you won't burn at all!

It's also critical that you spend time in the sun *without* sunscreen, when you put sunscreen you prevent your body from making life essential vitamin D which by itself prevents 77% of all cancers and tons of other diseases. You NEED sun on your "unprotected" skin daily to prevent these diseases.

Also, as you eat enough antioxidants and slowly get a natural tan you will resist burning more and more.

So.......does anyone know if using the tomatoes in a Vitamix counts as juicing? You know, for the sunburn protection?

Can't I just eat 'em???

Being a red head, I was used to going from white to lobster, white to lobster, never any tan. But this summer...I can't stop looking at myself! My friends even asked what brand of fake tanner I was using because it couldn't possibly be natural.
