Safe Exposure Time Calculation (Time to Burn Chart)

I Red or blond hair; light-colored eyes; freckles likely Always burns, does not tan 816.99
II Light eyes; light hair Burns easily, tans poorly 980.39
III Any eye or hair color (very common skin type) Tans after initial burn 1307.19
IV Dark brown hair; medium to heavy pigmentation Burns minimally, tans easily 1633.99
V Dark hair; rarely sun sensitive Rarely burns, tans darkly easily 2614.38
VI N/A Never burns, always tans darkly 4901.96
