I am of fair complexion and have sensitive skin.
By that I mean that I tend to burn in the sun sooner than most other people.
My kids don't have that problem, my husband too.
I also will only go to the beach if the weather is really hot. Like Mediterranean hot.
Yet I never use sunscreen, haven't used it on my children and my husband just hates the smell.
I have dealt with the negative impact of exposure to the sun by staying longer in the shade.
Recently I came upon some articles arguing for and against the use of sunscreen.
See the links below and decide for yourself. As in many other cases moderation is the key.
Enjoy summer!
I am in the Southern hemisphere :-(
