Sunburn help!?
Question:
Answers:
Try Aloe Vera gel...I'm using it on my very sun burnt skin too! It reduces the redness a lot! It also helps if you leave it in the fridge.
luke warm bath that will take the stink out of it
nothing in the water either
kind regards x kitti x
try and get some lotion with aloe vera,i know Julian graves is doing a body sun cream with aloe vera in.
Aloe Vera cream. I have an Aloe plant that i keep in the kitchen in case I burn myself. It is really soothing and should take the sting away. Other things you could try are vinegar, calamine lotion and natural yogurt. Good Luck!
my friends that burn tells me that Noxzema works wonders,
ice tea works. As weird as it sounds. I had 2nd degree burns once from the sun and i sprayed cold ice tea on me and it didnt hurt near as bad. you will be very sticky but at least you wont hurt.
It would hurt to touch my skin so the creams were out of the question.
lavender oil (a few drops should do) in a lukewarm basin.
aloe vera, a milk bath, pretty much anything that helps moisturize.
The best thing for sunburn is good, old fashioned Aloe Vera.
The gel, not any lotions that have aloe in them. Fruit of the earth makes a good version - completely clear, unscented and so far, the best you can put on a sunburn. Put it at least twice a day or however often your skin can soak it up.
Any Walmart, K-Mart, Target etc. should carry it.
Runs 4-5 bucks for a bottle.
Good luck!
Aloe vera gel is brilliant! also cucumbers and tomatoes from the fridge are fantastic cooling he skin down
tip - if you get blisters which i did use natural yoghurt!
Go and buy some fresh aloe from a garden centre. Split and softly rub juice into sunburn.
hi! i'm a italian boy and i don't understand much... but, bye bye
yogurt will take all the heat and soreness out.put it on the affected areas let it go hard that means its drawing the heat out , repeat until soreness has gone,then apply aloe vera or similar cream. it really works
natural yogurt it helped mine i got really burnt on holiday. i put yogurt on my burnt skin.and it really soothed it
My mother-in-law used to use a paste of bicarbonate of soda and water on my hubby's sunburn when hew lived in Saudi.
Might have some of that in your cupboard.
Do another Google for "sunburn bicarbonate" and see what you find. Might be able to add a load to a bath or something
Soothacain or Solarcaine. Something with Lidocaine or Benzocaine in it (spray or gel). This is a great remedy, doesn't cost a lot, and works great.
Just make sure you're not allergic to the main ingredient before you put it on.
This really works use warm tea bags on your skin just pat on the burn
try aloa vera, that is what I always use and trust me I burn really bad.
