We are like you. Our whole family is blond & pale skinned. We have a strong family history for skin cancer on both sides. We wear hats & appropriate cover ups like rash guards. We spend a lot of time in the sun playing sports & the like, so for us sunscreen is inevitable. I've weighed the pros and cons & for our family it is definitely worth it.
