Does sunscreen even exist in Dune. Would it (as we know it today) even help protect exposed skin?

To hear the Fremen tell it they are descendants of Egyptian Arabs. This is probably true but at a remove of over 10,000 years and like five planets there is no basis to assign them to any modern ethnicity or racial group. Fremen look like Fremen

Fremen are an entire planetary culture. There's no reason to assume they aren't diverse within themselves.

They also interbreed with the settled people, who presumably aren’t all born and raised on Arrakis in the first place. “Polish comes from the cities, wisdom from the desert.” It’s not a closed society even though it sometimes comes off that way.
