Kay. I have graduation in like a week and a half. and my nose and my chest have like a second degree sunburn. My nose is a complete scab.. and my chest is dry and kind of peely. This makes it really hard to sleep, move.. wear clothing.. etc. I looked everywhere for aloe, but all I can find is aloe with alchohol in it.. I also looked for a plant and can't find one.. I've been putting polysporin on it, cause I thought it'd make it heal really fast. It's only been like 2 days, and it hasn't really done anything.. the redness on my chest went away kind of.. except for where its dry and flaky. But its not like peeling sunburn dry and flaky its like souper dry skin and its hurts to move. UGH. Advice please. Week and a half to grad and I don't wanna look like a lobster. =[

It's a spray that you apply to the affected areas roughly twice a day to dull the pain, kill the sensations and make it so you can move, sleep or wear clothes easier.
It will clear things up faster for you. If you have trouble finding it just ask the pharmacist for it or a product like it as there are many. It won't stop the peeling but the itching will be gone. Try it, it works. You should be fine for your graduation but mind wind up with a darker tan but not looking like a lobster by any stretch.
