Answers:
Foile Ointment. I dont think it is on the shelf. You may have to get it from a pharmacist.
alovara (?), time
Get pure aloe vera oil (always keep some of this in the house) and get a family member to keep applying it. (every hour if possibe!)

You can go to the store and pick up a bottle of sunburn gel which would cool the skin down and help you handle it for a bit until the pain goes away. It will take awhile for your skin to heal though. Next time be sure to remember to put sunscreen everywhere that the sun will hit so that you wont get sunburn again.
yup. It's aloe vera time.
1. aloe vera gel. sounds funny but it works.

2. solarcaine (should be greenish) OTC (over the counter) burn cream/pain reliever. this would be your best bet before going to number three.

3. if it's bad enough, get some Silvadene. it's a perscription burn creme that works wonders. gotta go to the doctor's office to get it though!

The old remedy of using apple-cider vinegar really works. It may sting at first but then it stops the burn from hurting. You can also take lay in a lukewarm bath to help take the heat from it.
Try taking a vinegar bath. That will usually make the sunburn go in a little.
Use vinegar. Sunblock won't prevent sunburn 100% so stay out of the sun next time.
1.) Ibuprofen

2.) put Vinegar on the sunburn using cotton balls for the pain

3.) body butter. Burts Bee's body butter works very well. Can be found at a whole foods store

4.) sleep

best of luck :)
aloe vera gel
try asprinfor the pain. Sunburn is an inflammatory response of the skin. Asprin fixes the pain. Use lots of lotion to prevent peeling.
