Brown Skinned Filipinos Don’t get Sun Burns?
Posted On March 24, 2011
My sun burn started peeling away a few days ago. It was interesting for me to take a few pictures and a video to see how large a piece I can get from my thigh. My wife is grossed out but my kids thought it was interesting.
My wife and kids don’t get sun burns and don’t peel. They have their Ilocano blood in them. Somehow they are resistant to sun burns. Long enough under the sun and they just get a little darker. But me with my chinese and caucasian ancestors I just get burned immediately.
Apparently, a lot of people in youtube posted their sun burn peeling videos. So a good number of people think sun burn peeling is special in some way.
