hello .. i got sunburned nd want my natural skin color back... what shud i do ?????????

Just be patient with the peeling stage and then you should be fine. I hope you are not sunburned too badly. If so, take a bath with vinegar and it will take the sting out

Or take a cool shower if you can stand it.. aloe vera also helps.

Just take a cool shower and use some after sun lotion. Make sure you wear sunscreen! x

aloe vera, aquaphor, shea butter or any heavy duty moisturizer to keep your skin well moisturized.

Try using Noxzema and lots of aloe gel.

I got sunburned two weeks ago and my arms skin started peeling off. I'm using St. Ives Aloe Vera body lotion and my condition is getting better. No redness, itchiness, or peeling off anymore. Aloe Vera is a great ingredient to sooth and cure sunburned skin. Also, I agree w/ Katie that taking cool shower is helpful too. The other thing is you've to reduce the chances of your skin to expose to the sun. It might take may be 2 to 3 months to have your normal skin color back and it is depending on how severe the condition is and how fast your skin heals.

Good luck to you and me!

i think they already covered it..but yeah moisturize, the color will fade..

Go to Home Depot and buy an aloe plant. The real stuff is so much better.

same as everyone else, keep on moisturizing...

after a month of being exposed to the sun, start exfoliating with a very soft exfoliator(i.e. the natural stuff in kitchen oats, strawberries anything..) and keep on moisturzing..

oh, and i heard that a yughort and honey mask twice daily is good for lightening the skin.

stay away from bleaching or whitening creams and rough exfoliating, they may cause u a prob with milanen (i dont know how to spell it lol) as in a major problem with skin pigmentaion in all over ur body!

so becarful..
