If you have a sunburn cause you forgot your sunblock or just don't use the stuff there is a cure. You can kick it's tail in your sleep. Vic's vapor rub is a sunburns worst enemy and a sunburn victim's best friend! You can't use the genero vapo rub it just doesn't work. Works on other minor burns also for all you hot roofers .

Seems like it would burn. Are you trying to talk us into self-mutilation?
I got ben gay on my cajones once.. That stuff if greasy and does not easily wash off. Felt like a hot seat carried WAY to far.

OK, this is going to be an eye opener to some here, but what I do is....
......I put a shirt on BEFORE I get sunburned.
yep, cover up so you don't get burned.
I am going in on the 18th to get a few marks cut off my face and a few others looked at. I know one of them is a cancerous mark and it just happens to be right between my eyes on my nose. That one will be a fun one to take care of?!?!
So, yes, cover up. You can wear very loose cool clothes and still be able to work. I think one thing that helps me is that I hate to get dirty, I would rather sweat than get dirt all over me, so wearing more clothes while I work is OK with me. Don't get me wrong, I have a great tan, I don't even have the white booties, my feet are even tan. But burned? no thanks.

I current;y require shirts on all of my workers, and jeans.
If we had a lady on the crew in a sports bra, well, that might encourage the men to outwork her so as not to be shown up. Nobody wants to be beaten by a girl.
I would hire any woman that could get the job done and done right and on budget and pay her well.

I lllllove the burn..... LMAO about the put a shirt on that was great. The vic's dont feel like anything when u put it on just like being wet or oily by the next morning it's all absorbed into your skin and you aren't greasy anymore. You can be red as a lobster and get up next day and scratch the burn and it not hurt. I got a white butt
