  1. hello!

    you can also take a lukewarm bath with regular (i.e. Lipton) teabags in it! Make sure the tea infuses the bath...and lay in it for at least 15-20 min. this will NOT take the burn itself or the after-effects of peeling, etc. away. It WILL help to take the pain away. Side note: make sure to rinse tub well afterwards since the tea can stain your tub! :)


  2. Unfortunately, once you’ve been sunburned – much like any other type of burn, all you can do is baby your skin and wait for it to heal. Fortunately, there are lots of ways to relieve the pain. It’s important to stay out of the sun until your burn has healed as you can make it much worse! Refer to the previous section for tips on protecting yourself from worsened burns.

        * Reach for a product that contains lidocaine – Lidocaine is an anesthetic that will dull the pain.

        * iceCooled whole, plain yogurt applied topically can help soothe sunburned skin.Sunburn pain can also be eased through the use of over-the-counter analgesics such as acetaminophen or ibuprofen. Follow the usage instructions printed on the bottle.

        * Use a washcloth soaked in cool milk to gently dab the sunburned areas periodically.

        * Cold compresses and cool baths will help temporarily ease the pain – but it will likely return soon after the skin warms back up.

    # ome skin-friendly ingredients to look for in store-bought products are aloe vera, cocoa butter, vitamin E, lavender oil, and tea.

    # White or apple cider vinegars can be used to hasten healing, soothe your pain, and prevent blistering and peeling. Dampen a wash cloth with the vinegar and periodically dab the liquid onto the burns. Vinegar can also be added to bath water.

    # Pretend you’re a hot dog! Slather some mustard onto those sunburns.

    # Crush a raw tomato and apply it to the burned areas. This will be painful, but you will find that it speeds healing.
