Windburn is from chafing.

Sunburn is from sun.

Tanning is caused by exposure to sunlight - not from exposure to wind or cold.

Sunburn is common among the light skinned in the dead of winter when they ski on a sunny day because they are getting the reflection of the sun off the snow, effectively almost twice the amount they had become used to - and usually all day - and without much protection.

If you’ve chafed your face, I really don’t want to know how you did it.
