Well, You can get sunburns because the sun is very hot and you know how it evaporates water? Well, if you stay out in it too long with areas of your skin showing, it evaporates some of the water on it and dries it out which makes it turn red because your skin is raw and irritated because there is no or little water supplied there. Hope that helped you. Gigglybeth :)

The outer dermis (your outer part of your skin) when exposed to the suns UV rays, the blood vessels uner your skin start to swell which causes your skin to turn red. Your skin has something called PH levels. You can apply viegar to the area that is burned because viegar has the same PH levels as healthy skin so the redness will go down.

The sun emits many forms of light. Included are the forms we can see, which is what allows you to read this and perceive colors. There is also infrared which is beneath our visual perception, and ultraviolet, which is above our "sight range." All light is a form of radiation, but Ultraviolet rays are a form of harmful radiation, just like nuclear radiation or X-rays. The Ultraviolet rays basically burn skin cells after prolonged exposure. This causes that red spot on your skin and the pain that comes with it. Too much exposure can cause sun poisoning, which is like sunburn, but lasts much longer and hurts incredibly bad. The radiation can also cause mutations that lead to skin cancer.

In short, the sun's radiation burns your skin cells, causing sunburn.

Every one can get sunburn. Fair skinned blondes and redheads tends to burn easier than the dark skinned brunettes. If you find yourself nursing a sunburn, the following tips can help relieve the redness and discomfort.

* To relieve the itchiness of dried, sunburned skin, add one cup of colloidal oatmeal to a tube full of cool water. Then soak for 15 minutes. * Squeeze the gel from the whole aloe leaf and add one or two drops of lavender essential oil. Lightly apply the gel to sunburned skin. Repeat two or three times a day until the pain subsides.

People get sun burnt because Ultra Violet radiation which comes from the sun is harmful to humans. Burning is when the UV rays hit your skin and the skin cells literally burn.
