I was only in the sun for an hour but got so badly burnxed my face blistered and swelled to twice its normal size | The Sun

TEMPERATURES are due to hit 40 degrees on Tuesday.

But one person who won't be heading out in the sunshine is Eva Jones.




Eva took to TikTok to share her cautionary tale about the sun, revealing that she was left with severe blisters, a swollen face and heatstroke after sunbathing for just an hour.

"Tanning for an hour won’t do much," Eva began her video, which showed her with a black top and white shorts on.

It then changed to show her with a bright red face, and she appeared to be texting her friends when she wrote over a picture of herself smiling: "Guys Im laughing but it’s not actually funny."

Eva's complexion then started blistering, as she shared another picture and wrote: "An update girlies, my face has swelled up."

"Your face on one of the pictures was so red it lit my room up with a red glow," one wrote.

As another added: "you need to check the UV rating next time."
