Try using something over the counter with Aloe and E and you should be alright. If you notice any severe burning continuing throughout the week, I recommend seeing a doctor just to be sure everything is okay.

Aloe should work just fine. You can buy it at any store such as wal mart, CVS, Walgreens, Harris Teeter, Wegmans, etc. It's just an OTC gel type substance that cools burns. It works wonders. I apply it quite regularly when I get burned because I've got sensitive skin and it really helps soothe the pain.

aloe vera should do the trick but be patiant and a doctors visit isnt neccesary at all!

Tea bags that have brewed tea and are cooled down might help. Pat your face with them. If your burn is really bad, very painful with blisters, you might see a doctor.

Try washing your face with Noxema face wash, thats what I do. It really helps cool the sunburn down. Hope I was helpful.

Sunburn can be very painfull and also very bad for your skin,never overestimate your immunity because the sun is very strong these days.
You should cool the skin with water and then cover the area with Calamine Lotion and if the pain is very bad take some Paracetamol.
Hope you will soon be better
