This is due to an improper relationship with the sun, however, with some slight adjustments that healing power can be recaptured.” These are the “major screw ups” that the article discussed: Acclimation and exposure The article recommends avoiding overexposure and developing a base tan, or “protective tan” as it calls it, in the spring to prevent skin-damaging sunburn.
