Peeling Skin, Help?

Yes, we all know, peeling skin sucks. I have it on my arms and legs because I didn’t use sunscreen and got a bad burn. The burn is gone, but now here’s the peeling. While reading up on it, I keep seeing, DO NOT PEEL YOURSELF. Well, too late. I’ve peeled a lot of it. Now how do I get rid of it fast? If I’m not supposed to peel it what AM I supposed to do? Please, nothing that’s going to cost me money I don’t have, either.

Thanks!

Answer #1

just put lotion on it and it stops the peeling. nothing is gonna happen because you peeled it but its like peeling chapped lips it just makes it worse. so just put lotion on and it will go away. trust me! I tan 24/7 and I always peel lotion worksss!

Answer #2

Don’t peel anymore of it off by yourself, it causes scarring. You need to get an aftersun lotion to moisturize your skin (other than that nothing much is going to help - just don’t get burned again). You’ll just have to wait it out.
