What do I do about sunburn (dry/peeling)?

Question

Mine isnt as bad as my brothers.

He keeps peeling his.

But mine just gets really dry.

Should I put lotion every now and then or just leave it?

Answer 1

aloe is the best for sunburn...

Answer 2

Aloe vera helps with the burning or stinging of a burn.  If you are just concerned with the dry skin, lotion will help.  After there is no more burning from the sunburn but the skin is still flaking, you can use a skin exfoliater or body scrub in the shower to get the dry skin off.  If you don't have problem with flaking, just put lotion on.

Answer 3

Lotion every time it feels dry.  At least 5 times a day while it's still red.  When it's starting to lift (peel), don't pull at it, just rub it and let the skin flake off that way.  It's better for the surrounding skin.
