You are beautiful.....no scarecrows for your picture :--)
I have always had to stay out of the sun. My skin is white white unless the ole gal has forgotten the sunblock. My rash doesn't itch too much, but then again I have been real careful for the last few decades. I was very happy when sunblock became available about 1976 when my oldest child was born.
My pedigree (smile) is English, Scotch, Norweign and Spanish. I have cousins who tan, never burn. But, their skin will look like leather someday.
Have you tried any of the protective clothing? I will invest in light weight slacks and a long-sleeve shirt this calendar year. That is, if I don't spend all my money on quilting...
Piecefully yours,
Kay Susan
