Sunburned skin is already injured, making it far more sensitive to impact, friction, rope, wax, and other forms of play. Even mild sunburn can increase discomfort and leave skin more vulnerable to blistering, infection, and delayed healing.

If you’re attending an outdoor event or gathering, apply sunscreen, seek shade when possible, and stay hydrated. Taking care of your skin before a scene helps ensure it can safely tolerate the activities you have planned.
