Panda eyes when on holiday

7 replies

BG2015 · 04/04/2024 10:52

Whenever I go on holiday I always get 'panda' eyes where my sunglasses have been. I wear Rayban sunglasses.

I hate my face being in the sun so always wear high spf, sunglasses and a cap when I'm reading on my sunbed. . However, inevitably the sun always catches my face when walking about etc and I end up with white circles where my sunglasses have been - it looks ridiculous.

Is there anything I can do? I use fake tan on my face but still get the white circles.

Do you want to tan or not? If you don’t want to tan at all, use P20 in factor 50. I just need to look at the sun and go brown but I don’t change colour at all with this

I go brown. My whole body tans even using SPF 50!

I just want my eyes to catch up or not look so stupid.

Maybe I need sunglasses that don't give as much protection when I'm on my sunbed. Bit wear my good ones when I'm sightseeing and not so protected by my parasol and cap!

I go brown with any brand except P20.

If you do find a solution perhaps you can you give some advice to Donald Trump who appears to have a similar dilemma?

@TwoLeftSocksWithHoles that is so true

Audiobooks.

Suncream on. Headphones on. Sunglasses off. Enjoy your book. No panda eyes.

My DP says this. He listens to audiobooks but I just can't do it. My mind wanders.

I like to actually read.
