How do I get rid of sunburn and is it bad to peel it off?
I went to the beach a couple of days ago and I forgot to put some sunscreen on it and then I got really burnt and now its peeling on my back and it only started today and I have peeled some of it (is peeling bad?) and I have put mosteriser on it but it didnt work please help!!!
There is nothing you can do to stop the peeling. Peeling is a very bad sign with sunburn. It means that there has been damage to your skin. Next time wear a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 and re-apply it every half and hour or so.
To get rid or actually relieve the discomfort:
- Get some ibuprofen for the pain.
- Only take cold baths/showers as hot water will worsen the sunburn. Also add some vinegar to your bath to help relieve the pain.
- Get an aftersun lotion (johnnsons and johnnsons has a good one) that contains aloe vera
- Stay out of the sun for at least the next 2 weeks. If you do go into the sun wear protective clothing, sunscreen and a hat.
Well to heal it as fast as possible get wet rags and apply it on your sunburns. The if you have a head ache which is a side affect get some headache pills like Tylenol. Next go into a dark room and rest. You don’t want any light on those burns. Then apply skin cream the softest you have with SPF 15. And I hope those sun burns get better. Good Luck :) P.S. Yes Peeling is bad so try to avoid it.
Aloe Vera or other creams that you can buy just from the supermarket. They’re not that expensive and they work great
