I've had that happen to me once, fuckin around and floating in the pool with no sunblock on because "I don't need it, I'm black". Mf, let me tell you, I freaked the FUCK out when my skin started to peel.

Question, what would you say the resistance level is? Could you do an hour at noon in full sun with no burn?

Another comment here said something to the effect of "black people a get +10 spf perk", we can just go with that? I was like 12 when it happened so I didn't really take a mental note of how long it took, I was more concerned with figuring out how to be as still as possible.

Edit: and that comment said the spf +10 only applies for the darkest skin tones. I'm like milk chocolate bordering on caramel, let's just say imma burn up under the circumstances you provided.
