Today, my new bikini must be cheap as shit because I tanned nicely where I put on sunscreen, but where I didn’t apply it under the bikini I’ve gotten super red sunburn on my butt, my lady bits, and my boobs. My nipples look like the ends of red felt tip pens. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Zapped
Today, I'm on vacation and stupidly bought the cheapest sunblock I could find. Instead of protecting my skin, the sunblock acted as a damn lightning rod for the sun, and I now look like I just spent a few hours on a spit-roast. FML
Today, after applying sunscreen to myself every two hours, I still got sunburned. Through my clothes. FML
Today, I was really badly sunburnt, so I put on some after-sun. The only type we have has glitter in it, and now I look like a sparkling tomato. FML
Red alert
Today, I was going to bleach my bikini line, as I have not been able to shave there due to some ingrown hairs, and I also have to lifeguard every day. As it turns out, I'm allergic to the bleach. There is now an angry red, burning rash on my crotch that you can see around my swimsuit. FML
Today, I went to the beach. After applying sunscreen liberally and doing my best to stay out of the sun, I came home with the worst sunburn I have ever had. I almost needed to go to the hospital. I am officially too pale to be allowed outside in summer. FML
Today, I wore my new Brazilian thong bikini to the pool for the first time. I was lying face down feeling so sexy, until flies started buzzing my butt. FML
Today, I was badly sunburnt even after making it a point to apply a lot of sunscreen. My coworkers thought it amusing to slap me every chance they get. FML
Revealing
Today, I am fuming. We went to the beach in the sunny weather and my husband finally got round to posting the pictures on Facebook. In one of them I’m sunbathing and one of my fanny lips was hanging completely out the edge of my bikini. FML
Today, I tried shaving my bikini area for the first time. I ended up cutting myself several times. I now have impressive razor burn, and it's incredibly painful to even wear pants. FML
Today, I have Hello Kitty band-aids on my nips because I dozed off while tanning and burned them extra crispy. FML

actually they are specially made for people who want a full tan.

As much as I like boobs, I imagine in a few days they won’t be very a-peeling.

Please tell me that I’m not the only one who wants to go and google image search “sunburnt nipples” now?

I've read that you should put sunscreen even in areas covered by clothing.

Read the labels when you buy - Some Women’s swimwear is intentionally made to tan through. Some is not. The label should have told you.

OW! That sounds unbearably painful! I hope you feel better soon! I'll definitely think twice before buying a swimsuit again, and I'll just have to apply my SPF 100 absolutely everywhere.

You always need SPF all over, most bikinis aren;t ging to offer much protection. Sun can get through fabric, weirdly.

...are you sure you weren't actually wearing lingerie?

Sounds more like you’re allergic to the suit. Did you wash it before wearing? Have you worn it before without a reaction? Maybe it’s your detergent?
