	Homemade Remedies for Sunburn Homemade Remedies for Sunburn - Although some exposure to the sunlight is beneficial to the skin and your health, prolonged sunbathing is dangerous. But hey, who hasn’t managed to get sunburnt at some time or another? We do daft things such as falling asleep on the beach or we simply don’t realise how powerful the sun’s rays are because there is a cool breeze. It’s only a few hours later that we feel our skin getting hotter and hotter, more uncomfortable, verging on painful. Sunburn can make sleeping impossible and take away the pleasure of our holiday.

Homemade remedies for sunburn : Vinegar will help restore the skins ph balance quickly. It will also soothe the pain and may help prevent blistering. A great remedy to soothe your skin when it gets to the horrible itchy stage : Vinegar Spray Bottle Remedy Fill ½ vinegar and ½ water into a spray bottle. Spray onto burn areas as often as you like throughout the day. Alternatively you could take a bath. Run a cool bath and pour 3-4 cups of vinegar into the water. Soak for 15-20 minutes. Milk - Soak a gauze with milk and leave on the burn for a few minutes. This cools and soothes the burn, leaving a protective protein barrier behind. Milk Spray Bottle Remedy Alternatively fill a spray bottle with milk and spray directly onto your burns as often as you like throughout the day. Be careful with this - although extremely soothing you could end up a bit smelly by the end of the day! Aloe Vera is cooling, soothing and healing to your sunburn. Fresh Aloe Vera is best straight from the leaf. However I appreciate that this may not be available to everyone so Aloe Vera gel bought from a health store or pharmacy works just as well. Apply Aloe Vera gently to the area as often as required. Tea - The tannin in tea will soothe and help with the discomfort of sunburn. Make a pot of tea and leave to cool. Now pour the tea into a spray bottle and spray onto affected areas as often as required. Water - Having exposed yourself to the sun you should always make sure that your drink lots of water. Depending on the extent of your sunburn your body may continue to dehydrate even after you are out of the sun. DRINK LOTS OF WATER TO REPLACE LOST FLUID. Always ask a doctor's advice if you are concerned about the amount of sun to which you have been exposed.
