How to get rid of sunburn?

  • I've been going to band camp 10 hours straight a day for the past two weeks and I JUST got sunburned. I had to stop using sunscreen on my face last week because it made me break out with really bad acne. But since I've stopped using sunscreen on my face, I've got sunburn on my face. It doesn't hurt, I just want it to go away, it looks really ugly. Is there any way to get rid of the sunburn? (The acne going away would be a super big plus too)

  • Answer:

    Ya, I just got done with band camp also. Basically, Aloe Vera will help heal your burn. But also, if you rub vinegar on the burn, it will make it sting less. And lotion will prevent peeling. Hope this helps

NOXEMA brand skin cream. It helps both. Sunburns hurt, I use it on my face after tanning and the high blood pressure look goes away immediately.

One time at Band Camp... JK, Aloe Vera is great! Oh and Tea tree oil is a fantasic multi-use product that you could use, quite smelly but yet a great product.

Aloe Vera is perfect, coldness usually feels really nice on sunburnt skin, so what I do is when i get this aloe stuff, I refrigerate it, so it's nice and cold on the irritated skin.

you get rid of it stright away but just put aloe vera oil on it and it will go away quicker then it would if it was naturally but if u leave it for a bit it goes to tan and looks great lol :D

Whitch hazel or willy water takes the sting out! Aloe Vera takes the sting out it doesn't make it go away! If you put lotion or skin moisturizer it will stop it from peeling. That's after you take a shower each night. You just have to ride out the redness there is nothing to stop that

No. Aloe Vera will soothe it, and Eucerin will help replenish moisture in the skin, but you have to wait until the skin sheds, since it is burnt (a first degree burn). That is usually around 7 to 10 days, depending on the severity. Good luck you will live.

Put aloe vera cream on your skin. You can also put yogurt on your skin.
