Great cure for sunburn..............mouthwash

This ATOT Public Service Announcement comes to you via on of my buddies at work. He's a Professional Massage Therapist and my resident believer in all things that seem wacko, but this works.

Glyco thymoline


I guess it's the Glycerin in it, but like I said it works great.

BTW-don't try to do 15 min. in the tanning booth on your third time going, just so you won't burn on vacation.

That sounds like it would hurt.

I thought the same thing, but it doesn't.

Somebody used to make this stuff called "Sea Breeze". It was basically rubbing alcohol and some other skin treatment thingies thrown into it.

It stung like a mofo for a bit when you put it on a fresh sunburn, but then was very refreshing after the intial sting. Same concept as aftershave I guess.

Why not just use aloe?

I did the whole day before and it didn't work as good as this stuff.

How about gasoline and light it ?

I recommend avoiding getting burned in the first place.

I thought that aloe vera worked well?

I second that and aloe vera does work, but this was better.

I guess if the whole point of "curing" a sunburn is for the cooling effect (as nothing really cures a sunburn), anything that's associated with mint would work i.e. mouthwash , gum?, cough drops... Cuz you can't eat lotion, but who says you can't rub cough drops all over yourself ;D. I'm seriuos about the mint thing though.
