Treating sunburn?

I read that tomatos can reduce sunburn into more of a mild tan.

I'm not annoyed by pain or anything, I'm just trying to reduce the redness.

Yeah, I'll be sure to try that...

be sure to use your own urine to limit the risk of infection. you'll find your sunburn will heal much quicker than with normal balms. most people aren't as open minded as you are.
 
dont ever use vaseline lol.... i did that once in a panic.. didnt have anything else to put on and my skin was super dry. it actually made things worse, caused the damaged skin and underside to seperate and blister, and the vaseline that was rubbed on was contained in the bubble in between each layer.... it was on my back, and the spot that blistered the worst killed the pigment and now I have a white spot...

Aloe dries me out so I mix it with Vitamin E. Pop the capsules, mix it and apply. If you have access to the aloe vera juice, it seems to be even better than straight from the plant and it mixes better. My doctor confirmed that this combination is excellent. For the pain, aspirin is good. In fact, if you google it, some people claim if you take aspirin within an hour of getting burnt, the red will go away. I can't confirm that though.
