I know it's no fun to have a sunburn, so here are my recomendations:


-As everyone else said, use aloe vera on your sunburn. It will soothe the pain.
-Get a cool, damp towel, and lay on it when you sleep.
-Always take a cool shower; a hot one will make the burn worse. If you can, take a cool bath instead to prevent pain from the streams of water. Also, don't use any harsh soaps or washcloths as these will irritate the burn.

Good luck!!
I hope it feels better soon!
i am sure until now it cure spontaneously but aloa vera is the best . your main problem is after silent pain and redness with scar(small part of superficial skin that will separate from your body. Jacuzzi is the best. Report It

    noxema sooths sunburns very well!
    put some aloe vera on it...it will help health the skin and sooth the burn...a nice cool wash cloth always feels good too and can help the burn :)
    Apple cider vinegar mixed with equal part water in a spray bottle

    It'll clear up and be a nice tan tomorrow (but you'll smell like a salad!)
    aloe Vera is good but lets face it, where in the name of hell are you going to get enough?

    natural yogurt is very good! don't try the crap you give to kids, it has to be natural! it will sooth and moisturise your sunburn straight away! it can be a bit messy s o make sure you put a towel down (maybe on a bed) and lie face down and get someone to put it on you!

    good luck!
    well, I would spray some bactine on it, and you should get some calamine lotion, for the itch. It is healing, that is why it itches. calendula cream would heal the skin, if you have any broken sores, or lesions.
    o man that vinegar feels really good on a sunburn trust me just rub it on ur burn
