It is a known fact: Too much sunshine is dangerous for our skin.  It can do all kinds of nasty things such as cause hyper-pigmentation, decrease skin tone and elasticity, create spots and wrinkles, promote dehydration, and even worse, cause different types of skin cancer.  

Let me be clear in saying that all this is very true and certainly a real cause of concern.   However, I find that due to all these things, the sun, understandably, has gotten an extremely bad wrap.
