As Summer is here, I still manage to get sunburnt. As it’s painful and unpleasant, this post includes 8 proven ways to make sunburn go away faster.

I remember the days when we used to apply suntan oil instead of sunscreen so we could burn more! Good thing we know better now.
Aloe vera gel is a great way to cool a sunburn. My daughter had a sunburn a couple of weeks ago. I didn’t have any aloe vera gel so I cut a leaf off my plant and she used it.

It’s crazy when you think about it now. What were we thinking? (Although I could say that about a lot of things we did! LOL)

I can burn in 10mins easily, people thing I’m exaggerating when I say that but I am seriously pale. I’ve been burnt in February (in Italy) and October (UK) and I hate it so much. I always slather on the cream for me and the kids to the point of overkill. This year all the running has left me with a slight watch mark for the first time in almost 20 years! I’d rather be pale and interesting as they once said.

Now this is the post I needed today! Because its so warm and sunny we have been out a lot more recently but my other half just won’t wear suncream, he’s like a lobster atm, sending this his way haha. Thanks for saying about ice because we normally put ice on us, never doing that again.

Great information! Some medications I take make me burn really fast now. I used to be able to stay outside all day and be tan by night. Oh the joys of getting older. 😂 I didn’t realize that about not peeling the skin!

I really need to find a sunscreen/sunblock that works with my skin tone that won’t make me look white

Great article, Rachel. We don’t spend a lot of time in direct sunlight at the beach, on the hiking trail, or anywhere anymore. Dehydration is an ongoing challenge for me, so I’m now a shade-seeker! But, back in my beach days, we’d keep pure aloe vera in the fridge for use when we came inside. It helped tremendously & felt so good! These days, if we happen to get a bit more sun than planned, we use witch hazel, which is amazing as well. Thanks for sharing your helpful knowledge! 🌞
