Natural Sunburn Remedies

 

For sunburn at any age, there are a number of things that you can do to relieve your suffering. Start by taking a warm bath – no soap or shampoo, just water. Gently dry your skin off – don't rub! Next, take your pick of topical applications. You can use aloe, milk of magnesia, vinegar, or a baking soda paste. Each of these is an effective treatment for sunburned skin. Avoid topical lotions with chemicals as those can actually cause more irritation.

 

Be sure to stay out of the sun until the sunburn is completely healed and of course, use protection when you're in the sun. If you can't stay in the shade, sunscreen is the next best thing!
