Sunburn.


Question Posted Friday January 11 2008, 7:01 am

15/f/aus.

Okay so I got a really bad sunburn on my shoulder today spending an hour to walk to the nearest 7/11 and back. It's been the first day I haven't worn sunscreen all summer, because I didn't think I'd get sunburned.

Anyway, it's a pretty small spot, luckily and isn't hurting that much. However I'm still applying moisturiser to help but moisture back into my skin. My question is: How often should I apply the moisturiser on the sunburn?

Thanks in advance!

Using lotions keep the heat in on a sunburn, causing it to hurt longer. I would suggest a few things. You could use aloe vera gel, when it's cold, it feels great on your sunburn. Also, I have heard an olds wives tale, and tried it on my friend, which said it helped, using slices of potatoes to draw out the heat from the sunburn. She had gone to a water park in the middle of the summer and keep back looking like a lobster. We had cut slices of a potato up and put it on her sunburn. She laid there for a little while, when she got up, she said she felt better. Good Luck!

well actualy i dont think that you should put mosturiser on it i think you should put a towel soaked in tea on your shoulder it really works and it feels so good but i you still want to use moisturiser then you should put it on maybe every 3-4 hours but i really prefer the tea i think it works best but whatever suits you good luck i hope i helped
