Completely off topic but I need some help*
I got a tanning membership sence im so
pale and I want to be tan when I start
back at work (only 1 week!  ) anyhow, I got
soooo burnt! It kills and I look like a
cherry. I really dont want to peel,
normally I dont tho. But does anyone
know any tips on what to do for sunburn?
Besides aloe vera and coco-butter?
Neither seems to be helping, it hurts!!
Thanks!

Cold showers help the pain. But I am not
to sure about the pealing though. Good
luck though

Vitamin e oil works good...And you wanna
keep your skin moist so lots of lotion.
You peel becauz your skin drys up and
dies...So you wanna keep it as moist as
possible...And try not to rub up against
anything hard cuz it might cause you to
peel. Hope that helps

Instead of a cold water pounding on you, I
always take a cold tub bath. That way
you can ease down in and soak. Then I
usually let about half of the cold out and
fill it with warm. It may not help with
the peeling, but it makes your skin feel
so much better!
Love,
megan

Blistex!!
Of course, its not feasible for large
portions of the body, but I have found
that on small burns, its the miracle cure!

I'm not sure where you're from, but here
in the us they sell this stuff called
lanacane (sp?) spray! Its awesome!! It
takes the heat out of a sunburn, but
leaves the color..... Its in an aerosol
can, and only like $3/can! It does
wonders!

it worked.

Wow and none of you think of the
dangers.
Burning is sooo dangerous and can be your
quick ticket to skin cancer.
I used to be a sun worshipper (especially
bad cuz i'm blonde) until I got my first
tattoo and got informed by my tattoo'ist
not only what the sun could do to my
tattoo but what it will do to my skin.
If you must tan please please use a
protective lotion and an aftercare product
and do try not to burn.
Also good idea to use an anti-aging
product as well as it the uv rays cause
wrinkling, breaking down the elastic
fibres in the skin.

it will happen. It's great pic of though
and your skin will be all smooth
underneath and tanned lol just loads of
moistruiser I have hawian tropic cooling
gel with aloe vera that works a treat. I
gave it to chris because he got burnt in
the sunbeds and could hardly sit for a
week lol

Yeah, you'll still get tan through
sunscreen, and it won't harm your skin
nearly as much!! And none of that spf 4
sh|t. That doesn't count as sunscreen!!
