you could try using any type of aleo vera or lotion to help the pain..and aleo vera for redness..and if it stops hurting cover up will hide the redness some..and this will all go away if you are just patient with it..but im sure you dont want to wait, bcuz i wouldnt either!..but anyways..use lotions and if the swelling doesnt go down soon, you might want to see a doctor..i hope i helped!

♥ eeek. women. did you use sunscreen for your face? Next time do that. Or use face lotion with like SPF 15. There is no actualy treatment for this or a cure. But the best thing that you can do thats natural and will also bring down the swelling&&pain is to use ALOE. If you can find aloe of your face at the store that would be great. Deffinetely use that and follow the directions on the back. I used to burn my cheeks REALLY bad when I was little because i was ALWAYS in the sun, and my mom would put aloe on it and it would be all better =]
I hope I helped! Good luck! Happy holidays ♥

Aww im so sorry to hear that!! Im not sure what you could do. Keep putting ice packs on your face, && keep using neosporen (sp)!! It should work after a while. =)
Sorry if i didn't help much =(

Hey
I'm sorry, That really sucks. Umm I have Aloe gel and some hom Burns cream which helps a bit - certainly worth trying if it's really as bad as you say it is. Keep putting ice on your face no matter what ice is always going to make things better.
Here are some helpful ideas:
Milk is another sunburn treatment that you likely have on hand, or that you can easily purchase. The fat and lactic acids in milk are known to have soothing qualities for sunburned (or even dry) skin. Because the milk's fat content is important for this treatment, use whole fat products. Soak a soft cloth in the milk and dab carefully onto the burned skin. Do this for around twenty minutes. Make sure you rinse off with cool water so that you don't end up smelling like spoiled milk! Taking vitamin supplements for the first few days can promote faster recovery of your damaged skin. Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, beta-carotene and flaxseed oil - in either liquid or capsule form - will boost healing from the inside out. Using moisturizing lotion with these vitamins can also help prevent peeling and fading.
Try brewing up a big pot of tea. The tannins in tea can soothe and help relieve some of the discomfort of burned skin. Brew the tea and allow it to cool completely. Slosh it over the affected areas with a soft sponge. It might be a good idea to apply this sunburn treatment in the bathtub or shower recess.
Your cupboards probably contain a number of sunburn treatments without you even knowing it. One product that you are likely to have on hand that can be very soothing to a sunburn is baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) - the same item you use to make your cookies rise and to deodorize your icebox! Add about a cup of baking soda to a bath filled with lukewarm water, and soak for as long as you desire. Try to make sure that all affected areas are submerged for this treatment to work best. Pour the bath water over your body using your hands or a soft wash cloth. Dab onto burned facial areas gently or splash the water directly onto your face. Rinse with cool water to remove any remaining grit, and moisturize with either after-sun lotion or aloe vera gel.
