Peeling sunburned Skin!

friendface · 26-06-2010 11:23PM #1

Who else does this? I'd completely forgotten how fun it is because I haven't been sunburned in years

I just spent the last 20mins peeling skin off my leg though and trying my best to beat my record for the largest intact single sheet of skin peeled off in one go.

In case you're wondering, my new record is about the size of a playing card.

Haha, if I have just made one person sick with the above post, my work here is done. lol

I actually used to do the exact same thing alot!, but being serious, I think some extra care should be taken if a star millions of miles away is burning the skin of your body!

it's way too addictive.

You've just reminded me of the summer of 1984 when I had my worst sunburn ever. The skin was coming off me in layers and as I remember I peeled off a strip of skin about 25cm long.

WindSock · 26-06-2010 11:54PM

Yeah my back is peeling today. Must be prime skin shed day or something here in old eire. Can't get any daecent bits as the area is small and awkward but I did manage to get some tidbits to store in my pillbox to nibble on tomorrow.

I resisted, but then I pulled my motorcycle helmet off today and half the sunburnt skin on my forehead peeled off from the friction. I kinda looked like someone with leprosy.

You know, there's this thing called moisturiser...

Erm, perhaps should go out more during the summer months. There are a few days where it is actually possible.

Lando Griffin · 27-06-2010 09:42AM

I think this is funny in a kinda gross way, couple of years ago my left ear got sunburnt in Lanzo, the only place I didnt cream up. Came home and forgot all about it till one day I was walking around Pennys shopping and was getting strange looks from people. So I looked in the mirror and there was 'another ear' hanging upside down from my ear lobe where the skin peeled off in one perfect piece and was hanging there like an ear ring!!!! :eek::eek::eek:
