Alot of my family members were born in and live in Hawaii, and I would love to live there too!But I was wondering, is it alright for me to live there if my skin is really pale?I mean, think of the PALEST white person you ve ever seen, (not someone with a skin disease)I get sunburned easily if I stay in the sun for about 4 hours and don t use much sunscreen.So should I always use sunscreen ALL THE TIME while living in Hawaii?
I am on the pale side I use sunscreen on my face neck every day, no matter what. If I think I am going to be outdoors much more than going between the car the house, then I sunscreen arms, legs, neck... whatever will be exposed. My kids are strawberry blondes like most redheads, they burn very easily. They both use sunscreen religiously. It s just part of living in the tropics.
I once met a white woman who had lived in a beach house in Hawaii for about 50 or 60 years, and I have to say, the doctors did an amazing job replacing her nose. I am really bad about not wearing sunscreen, since I work indoors during the sunniest hours. I ve been known to sunburn during a fire drill, though. I do know a Local of Native Hawaiian descent who does not leave the house without SPF 15, at least. When I know I m going to be in the sun, SPF 70 with Helioplex, Baby! But I do try to avoid the sun between 9 AM and 3 PM. Seriously.
Right there with you Hawaii home.You will get darker for sure, and idk, i dont use sunscreen. but then again, my skin got really damaged. But whatevers, I m asian, born with light skin, look filipino now. Just spending time in Hawai i will darken you, and after you get darker, the sun won t affect you as much. My advice, just come to Hawai i, you wont regret it. Pale skin, pshh, no one cares really, you ll be fine.
Between 10 AM and 3 PM, everyone should use sunscreen. Wear a hat and long sleeves when possible.There are a lot of pale people here, so you would have lots of people to get advice from.After 20+ years of not taking precautions, your skin would develop tumors and spots, most likely.
yes, you will. just like my uncle, he was really pale, and he stay in the sun for only 20 minutes, and now he has skin cancer, and he is scheduled to die very soon. we will miss him very much, but life goes on
