    Because infra-red associates with “warmth”, and so does sunburn. But will it have greenhouse-effect?

    I was going to say that: suntans and sunburn are caused by UV rays, not infrared.

    I’m not sure if I want to look like Floyd R. Turbo on the beach either.

    So with that tanned body and white face she walks around looking like a mime?

    It would stop UV rays too. You don’t get a sunburn behind glass.

    She looks like an Xmen character. Perhaps her power is UV related and she wears the helmet so she doesn’t accidentally kill everyone?
