Sunburn cures?

W.Shakes-Beer

My feckin head looks like a tomato, got sun/wind burned today. Hurts.

The worst thing is I'm one of those pale skinned, non tan-able types.



Any cures (not relating to piss blasting)?

go to the chemist and ask for some hydrogel spray thing - it's magic

Smeefa

Aloe vera gel stuff... Works like a charm.

Or if youre stuck, I heard natural yoghurt works!

Ah good idea, gonna have to try in the morning though, all I have here is like a moisturiser gel which has some Aloe Vera in it. Guess I'll have to persevere for now.

Well ride me sideways! You learn something new every day :pac:

this is arse

cow schit, really, it contains antioxidants and natural pain relievers, just cover the affected area moderately every 3-4 hours rubbing in gently, for best results continue treatment for 5-7 days after initial burning. guaranteed results and free!

Calamine lotion. Also tie dock leaves to your head, or is that for nettle stings?

SadieSue

Put your aftersun cream in the fridge for half an hour before you put it on.

Mondello track day, not a patch of shade!

Yeah was 14 degrees because of the wind chill, but the sun still roasted my head. My own family laugh at it. Feckers

Camomile lotion is great stuff OP. Used it after getting badly burnt at oxygen one year.

Yeah the price of the tickets are scandalous!

I got so badly sunburnt a few years ago I couldnt sleep properly at night time for a few nights. Ended up taking a lounger chair into the back yard and slept outside at night time in it. The cool, nighttime breeze did me wonders. Maybe you could try that.

+1 for natural yogurt, also sliced tomato held against the skin is very effective.

I got sunburn on my back when I was abut 8 on holiday in Spain. I was really painful and I couldn't sleep with it. Nothing Could be done though. I was gone after a day or two.
