How can I stop my skin from peeling/ flaking off? (sunburn)?

Question

Oh and I need my skin to be back to normal before school starts on September 3rd.

Answer 1

For sunburn- Use Sunscreen gel. It prevents sunburn and it doesn't clog up your pores either.  

Answer 2

oh thats normal you will notice that it will go away in a few days most likely before sept. 3rd. When your body peels like that from a sun burn its because it has healed and will be back to normal with in a few days or weeks for some. I would recommend After the sun aloe vera gel. It can be found in any supermarket or pharmacy but I would run out and get it soon b/c they put it away with the sun screen so once the sun screen is put away for the year so isnt the Aloe gel. Its like a seasonal item just like the sun screens. Also cool baths are good to help the skin kinda fall off. It sounds gross but cool baths and showers do it just fine.

Answer 3

aloe

Answer 4

vitamin E lotion.  

Answer 5

Use a good moisturizer like this: http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/produ...

or Neutrogena Oil Free Sensitive Skin moisturizer, and make sure whenever you're in the sun to put sun screen on, and if your skin is acne prone than use an oil free sunscreen. Neutrogena and Aveeno have oil free sunscreens. The dear john moisturiser works best, good luck!!!

Answer 6

that exact same thing happened to me i just got back monday and my sunburn is already gone. my secret?: wash your face three times a day and at night before you go to bed, put an ample amount of petroleum jelly (i.e. Vaseline) on your face, and in the morning, your face shouldn't be greasy (when you go to bed, ur face should feel all greasy). after about three days, you should be good as new. if you stay indoors, you can put the petroleum jelly on, but its really bad for your face to put it on and go in to the sun, and your sunburn will get worse. hope i cud help!

P.S. i was worried about the same thing the other day, and im sure your doubtful about this, but trust me, it works.

Answer 7

i think you should put on vaseline aloe vera lotion to smooth the skin
