Today, I got a really bad sunburn. On my eyelids. Who knew blinking could be so painful? FML

Today I got sunburned on my cheeks. This wouldn't be too bad if they were the ones on my face. FML

Leave it to the pros
Today, I was attempting to tame my bushy eyebrows, since I'm starting a new job in a few days and need to look somewhat presentable, when I poked myself in the eye. Hard. I thought I’d blinded myself for a few moments. Now it’s just red, sore and watery. 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

Today, I realized how exhausted I was when I mixed up my eye makeup remover with toner. My eye still burns. FML

Today, I got the worst sunburn I've ever had in my life, and then discovered I'm allergic to aloe when I went to treat the burn with some gel. FML

Today, I woke up with a pimple on my eyelid. Not only is it impossible to cover up with makeup, I can't pop it either. Now I'll be spending the rest of the day trying not to blink. FML

Today, I put aftershave on my fingers to encourage myself to stop biting my nails. I absentmindedly rubbed my eye a few minutes later. It burnt like hell. FML

Today, I went to the store and bought some cream to help with a sunburn I'd gotten a few days ago. What's worse than having red, peeling, and painful skin? An allergic reaction on top of it. FML

Today, after an extremely hard day at work, I took a hot shower to wind down a little bit. I accidentally splashed a painful amount of hot water and shampoo in my eyes. My left contact is now stuck to my eyeball. FML

Ooh. I feel sorry for you. And here I was thinking blinking was easy.

I had sunburn underneath my fingernails. So suck it up op.

Question: How did you manage to get sunburn under your fingernails?
Michaelsgirl04 9
the worst sunburn is on the bottoms of your feet
Duuvve 13
Nah, the worst possible sunburn is on your ass, so you can't sit on it.

Ew, 77.. I think I can speak for a majority of people on here by saying no one wants to hear about you jacking off, or uh..not being able to jack off. Either way, keep what you do with yourself to yourself. Thanks.

The absolute worst place to get a sunburn is the armpits. The eyelids are bad too. Poor OP.
xxreemey 5
Getting a sunburn anywhere sucks, but on your eyes, that's absolutely horrible. You could try cucumber slices, that might help.
deceivedandlied 19
Agreed sunburn on your ass is one of the worst kinds of sunburn. Especially when you have to sit in a small cramped car for a 3 hour ride home from the beach.

One time I got a sunburn on my spear. It hurt to shake it. But I suppose eyelids would hurt just as bad.

Are we just naming bands here? Ok. Siouxsie & the Banshees.

Siouxsie& the Banshees is actually a good choice, since they sing "Peek-A-Boo". Now I'll say "Naked Eyes"-There's Always Something There to Remind Me. (:

To be honest, one direction sucks dick. I could name 5 bands better than them off the top of my head right now. Rush, Queen, Led Zeppelin, Skrillex, and Avenged Sevenfold.

Should have wore sunscreen, didn't anyone ever tell you that you have to apply it on both your eyelids and behind the ears?
ImaginaryFoe 1
Excellent advice. People seem to not like that around here lately. Eyelid skin is the thinnest on your body, if I recall correctly. It burns quite easily if you're lying out with your eyes closed. Wear sunblock, people! Wear it everywhere, everyday. Fake tans are more attractive than skin cancer (although what's wrong with the colour you started in?).
Duuvve 13
Good advice indeed, but I'd suggest wearing sunglasses. A friend of mine once sunburned his sclera(?) (white part of the eye), which was very painful, his eyes kept tearing for days and had to wear sunglasses inside his house, because his eyes couldn't stand any light. But of course, if you wear sunglasses while tanning, you'll probably have some funny tanlines at the end of the day. :)

#36 You strike me as a sort of a sunglasses enthusiast...

Yeah, 'cause sunglasses = badass, so more sunglasses = more badass, right? No? ... Okay :(

If it's too painful to blink, weeping angels wouldn't be able to get you. You'll be alright.
