Sunbathing

Sunbathing is a recreational activity that humans and Smurfs engage in. In the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series, Vanity, Nudie, and Smurfette are constant sunbathers who like to get a good tan. They are usually careful to apply sunblock in order to prevent themselves from getting sunburn. However, Brainy during the time-travel adventures in The Lost Year neglected to follow this advice and thus had to be wrapped in swaddling cloths soaked in aloes in order to be healed.
