Personally, I only wear make-up when 'on stage' as it were..... other times I rely on factor 100 sunblock - otherwise known as the pub!

There are sensible companies out there combining the two - there are some that act as blocks without realising it, but you have to do a trial and error to find which ones.   A wide brimmed hat is always sensible, as is the cotton shirt or light jacket to put over your arms and shoulders.

I once paraded at a festival with my face painted in stripes - all day in the sun and found that when washed off, I had 3 tanned stripes and the rest was its normal ruddy hue. Took ages to match the rest of the face up to the stripes by solicitous use of sunblock and the next sunny day (which wasn't until a week later!)

To avoid the happy smiling butt look, try longer shirts or a teddy that goes all the way round.
