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

How? Why?
Today, my day started with me peeing in my own face. My eye still burns. 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

Well, my friend went to tan outside and fell asleep, and when she woke up, half of her face was burned and the other half was white since she slept on one side.. So having burning eyelids is allright i guess? :)

She must've looked like a human poke-ball.

Judging by her screen name, I think it's safe to assume she did.

This is why I use high factor sunscreen when I'm going out for more than half an hour in the summer, and even higher factor on my face. And the number one cause of burnt eyelids is falling asleep in the sun- don't do that. Yes it sucks, but YDI for not treating the sun with enough respect.

Ever heard of sunblock, genius?

Your rudeness really isn't necessary. I'm sure you've forgotten sunblock a time or two and managed to get a sunburn, it does happen.

Really?? But seriously how many people actually remember to put sunscreen on their eyelids??

Don't blink or die!! (Please, someone get the reference) But seriously, yikes. Get well soon, OP.

I cut off my eyelids, blinking was too inefficient!

That is one, ugly waffle. At least it doesn't look like a blue waffle.
