The oils are produced for a reason, right? Don't they serve as a natural sunscreen?
Of course, I'm a greasy eye-talian, so maybe I need to bathe twice a day.

I thought the oils only performed the second of your three functions. But then again, I am Irish and pale. So maybe it is just me that gets no natural protection from the sun.
