It's very painful when you get sunburn, but it's not just the pain that can hurt you ~ there are other harmful things too! The reason why some people get sunburn is because the Ultra Violet rays from the sun hit your skin and the skin cells literally burn. Sun Burn hurts because like anything that is burned, is burned to a crisp and your skin gets tight and hard to move. People who are fair-skinned or have light features mostly get burned worse then others because the color of their skin is so light that the UV rays have more of an affect on it.

Why do some people get skin cancer yet others dont?

Light skinned people, especially blue-eyed people or people with freckles are far more likely to get skin cancer than people with plenty of natural pigment in their skin. We (light skinned people) should not go into the sun without LOTS of sun-blocker. Dermatologists will all tell you that sun exposure is accumulative. We can only get so much sunlight in our lives, then we will get skin cancer.

AnswerThen don't try. Fair skinned people, especially people who have moles, are susceptible to skin cancer if they spend too much time in the Sun.Too much Sun will also cause premature wrinkling of the skin.My skin is very fair but it means that we get clothes to suit our NATURAL skin tone. You are what you are. Love your self
