Last time I had a bad sunburn, someone told me to use Vinegar and it really helped.. it was worth smelling like a salad! LOL
I'd offer hugs, but ouch! hope you feel better!

That makes me want to go slab an extra layer of sunblock on just looking at it. OUCH. I sympathize. The worst part is having to shower with a sunburn. Even bath tubs can be painful if it's on the back of your legs. Come to think of it, that might be how I got in the habit of laying on my stomach in the bath. I think my skin matched the color of my hair throughout my childhood (was allergic to the old sunscreen products.)

OWIEEEEE!!!!! Bullfrog for kids! I highly recommend it for big kids too!!! Very water repellant and very high SPF... I don't go anywhere without it (almost). This may sound strange but honey and olive oil are both very good humectants (help keep moisture in the skin). You may think of using them in addition to aloe... in the bath of course :-)

Oh, you poor thing. I can sympathize so much. Aloe is your friend!

Ouch!!!! My daughter Emily has very fair skin and gets quite red even when we use very high SPF "sunscream" on her. (as she calls it.

Take care of that ouchie!

I agree with mynx, you are a skinny girl!

Hardly skinny. ;-) But ouch, yes. And I put sunscreen on, too!
