dude, no strain of weed should make your skin burn! maybe ur havin some sort of allergic reaction to some fertilizer used or somethin, but as for effects, there's the sleepy, heavy, munchies-inducing indicas, such as afghan, pakistani, kushes, etc. (there are afghan kushes, paki kushes, and the OG kushes which arent really a kush, but are a indica/sativa hybrid). there are sativas, which is what i assumed you were referring to when you said "wake n bake", as sativas are what i prefer for morning and day time puffin. Sativas, in most cases, are more energetic, clear-headed and end with little to no burnout. sativas can have different effects, some are more racy like hazes (which can cause paranoia for some people), while others are a bit more relaxing, but will still leave you with a clear-headed, social kind of buzz. and lastly there are sativa/indica hybrids, which can be anything from mostly sativa with a small amount of indica, to a mostly indica with a dash of sativa. most Skunk strains are mostly sativa (about 75%), however, there are shit tons of indica-based skunk hybrids. it can be confusing, but i'm thinkin if you went with a strain like AK47, which is a balanced hybrid, with just a touch more sativa than indica (60:40) you'd be pretty happy with it as a morning-time smoke (in moderation). the skin burning thing worries me a little as i've never heard of anyone having a reaction like that, but with all the sativas, indicas, and hybrids out there, i'm sure you'll find something that tickles your fancy. most people got with hybrids that are either 50/50, or favor one side of their parentage over another (like AK). hope this helps, and i wish you the best of luck
