I was sunburned.Now i'm pealing!What should i do?

Question

I was sunburned over the summer while i was out boating.And now,2 weeks later, my skin is peeling!I was wondering if i should just try rubbing it off a little every day, or if i should just leave it (by the way, i am 11 so don't think I'm like 20 and asking this odd question)

Answer 1

use some aloe and keep it well mosturized. Drink lots of water.

Answer 2

Take a long shower to separate the dead skin from the living skin.

Use a rough washcloth & moisturizing soap to scrub dead skin off.

You only need to do this once a day.  Too often will expose the new living skin too soon.

Next time, use sunscreen.  

Answer 3

Don't worry, this is totally normal. If you have aloe vera at home, use it and rub it on the sunburn. If you don't, I'd suggest getting some because it helps prevent more peeling and helps heal it. If you can't get any, then at least use vinegar on it until you can get some because vinegar temporarily helps it (but just a little). Hope I helped! :)

Answer 4

use aloe vera lotion or jell   but it is better to use real aloe from an aloe plant, when showering or bathing use a wash cloth or loofa and rub it off, but don't peel it on your own without it being wet it can make your skin hurt

Answer 5

lol

happens to me all the time

put aloe gel on it you can buy it at the store or at a drug store

it will make it heal faster

you could peel it if you want but if it hurts leave it on

i peel it anyways :P
