One woman shared on TikTok last week how going out in the sun when England was hot for just an hour left a painful sunburn on her face.
Social media user Eva Jones shared with her 5,000 followers that she was lying in the sun on a beach in England on Wednesday – as the temperature was 40 degrees higher than expected today – and then quickly sunburned. Don’t use enough sunscreen.
Eva, who was camping at the time, said she didn’t feel her skin burning “because there was a breeze” and was only in the heat for a short time.

Eva Jones posted a TikTok video last week showing her puffy face pictured as she normally looks after just an hour in the sun in a British seaside town.
TikTokker told her 5,000 followers that she thought she was going to get a tan… but was left with a red face and painful blisters on a camping trip Wednesday.
But hours after he returned to his camp, his face began to turn painfully red and sore… over the next few days, he began to collect blisters.
The short clip she shared on her social media platform showed the various stages of her skin as the damage from sunburn became evident, causing her to be surprised that the British sun could be so brutal.
Eva stated in a follow-up video that she thought the temperature was only around 20 degrees at the time, “I didn’t wear enough sunscreen, I went to the beach for an hour.
“There was a breeze, so I didn’t think it would be as bad as it used to be.
The photos showed the brutal effect that lying in the British sun for just 60 minutes had on her skin as it quickly turned bright red.
Eva made it clear that she would never go out in the sun in today’s record temperatures, but admitted that she needed to put on more sunscreen.
She said that after her face flushed, her skin swelled from lying in the sun.
Eventually Eva’s face became covered with blisters as her skin began to heal from her time in the sun.
After returning to his tent later in the day, “his nose started to turn red and then my whole face started to turn red and then I started to burn,” he said.
In today’s record temperatures in England, he warned others not to go outside, saying, “If it was a stupid degree and I hadn’t been wearing sunscreen, I wouldn’t have been out in this kind of weather. I should have put on enough sunscreen last week, it was my fault.’
