How to heal a Sunburn

Sunburns can be painful and ugly. The bright red color is not the worst of it, it is the peeling that comes when it is healing. The pain turns to itch, and you swear you'll never go to the beach again (until next time).

Even though you should absolutely wear a sunblock (with an SPF of 15 or more), burns can still occur. You can find relief from sunburns by using ice packs, keeping your skin moisturized, and using creams with aloe vera. It is also important to drink plenty of fluids, because sunburn can cause dehydration.

Products to try:

Natural High - Organic Aloe Vera Gel 32 oz

After Sun Body & Face Maintenance Moisturizer 8oz

GNC Aloe Vera Skin Gel 2 oz(s)

It is best to use products with at least 98% aloe. The best way to get pure aloe is from the plant itself.

Vitamin C and E are both good for the skin, and can help the skin heal from a sun burn. Consume produce, such as broccoli, carrots, melons, peppers, and tomatoes for Vitamin C. Try avocados, almonds, and sunflower seeds for Vitamin E.

Remember to use sunblock, an umbrella, and wear a hat! Protect your skin, you want to keep it looking young and healthy as long as possible.
