Trying to be good responsible adults, Colby and I purchased extra sunscreen while we were at the beach in Nha Trang so that we could be properly protected from the sun. Good right?
Well, we thought it was all good, but then we both got REALLY burnt. I mean, I know I have pale skin, but even I if I reapply SPF 50 every 2 hours shouldn't get burnt. And Colby tans - not burns. No no, we figured out that we had been sold fake sunscreen. Whether it was expired or was just never actually sunscreen we don't know. What we do know is that we are pissed. And we are red. We are actually thinking of writing to Lonely Planet and telling them to include a section in the book about fake products. Not cool not cool at all.
When we were in search of Aloe Vera today upon returning to Saigon we were worried we wouldnt be able to communicate with the shop person what we were looking for. But the universal language of showing someone your burnt shoulders I guess always works afterall!
