Guess who has a massive burn from being outside for TWO hours without any protection? ME! It's across my shoulders, and down my back until my shoulder blades. It hurts. A lot. I'm using aloe vera gel, but any other suggestions? It hurts. A lot.

Bought myself a hat, sunglasses, suntan lotion (SPF 30!) and an aloe vera cream/lotion...

I've got a question about those tanning liquids. Do they actually work? You put them on like sunscreen (but they're a low SPF ... like 4-8) and you tan?

How does one choose a good suntan lotion/sunscreen?

If it helps any... I've got freckles, and red/blonde hair (with a dark tone)... I burn too easily it seems.
