Hi,

Well, first of all, it’s interesting that you first asked how to make your freckles less noticeable and now you’re asking me about diminishing sunburn. The sunburn likely is causing or at least increasing the amount of freckles you have, especially if you are fair-skinned. Also, I don’t need to tell you how dangerous excessive sun exposure is..put on the sunblock or just stay out of the sun for long periods of time, and you won’t have a sunburn OR as many freckles.

Now, if you’re already gone and gotten sunburned, I’ve heard that steeped tea bags will help diminish the pain and redness. Make a pot of boiling water and steep many tea bags to a very strong tea in a large pot. Add ice until the tea is just slightly warm. Put a bath towel into the pot and keep turning the towel until it has soaked up all of the tea. Place the wet towel over the sunburned area of the body. Leave the towel on for a half hour for a moderate burn and an hour for a strong burn.

If the sunburn is all over your body, take a tea bath. It will soothe the area and make it less red.

Good luck.
