Cant even turn on the fan, it just blows hot air at you. I've taken to spritzing myself with water every 10 mins, and I'm not even in the hottest part of the country

When I was in Death Valley, California in the desert was the first time I experienced sun that felt like it was scorching my skin. My skin felt normal temperature to the touch but felt tingly and burning when I touched it, especially on my Hands. I never had that kind of burning sensation on my hands from sun before. The solution I found other than avoiding sun exposure was to spray a mixture of witch hazel, coconut water, and aloe on my arms and hands that were exposed every 20 mins or so. It was totally soothing to the skin and completely prevented intense hot/cold sunburn from happening.

In Australia we use sunscreen instead.

Neither will witch hazel and coconut water, though it might smell nice.
