Take showers and gently slough it off. Put a mixture of baby oil and cocoa butter lotion on your skin after every shower and before bed and as often as you can. I like to use Palmers Cocoa butter lotion.

You're a month out from the wedding--you should be fine.

There is no reason to burn and peel so bad at the fake and bake! The staff should be helping you pick an appropriate time so that you don't burn like that. It's sooo bad for you! There is usually a chart on the beds that clue you in as to how much time you should be spending. I have medium skin and I only do 4-5 minutes my first time out and work up to 10 minutes inabout two weeks. Next time, just go for a few minutes, less the lighter your skin tone is.

get someone to scrub your back with a sponge and soap in circular motions. first to the right then to the left. after your shower.. Make sure to put LOTS of cream on it, (vitamin e included works best because it rejuvenates and restores it) if you scrub your back every other day it works best. picking at it will make the peel uglier just exfoliate it off( scrub and moisturize) DONT take baths or long showers either it dries out the skin MAJOR making it peel more. the skin color will change dont WORRY! youl look great by the time the wedding comes.

Take a shower and use some really good body wash, I prefer Arbonne FYI shower gel. Instead of using those little puffs that are usually great for putting body wash on, Use a natural brissled body brush. After you get out of the shower, use a good thick body butter, once again I like the Arbonne FYI body butter. (these products can be purchased in a set at http://www.arbonne.com). After that I usually throw in a nice pair of sweats, and relax for a while. The body butter will get onto the inside of the sweats, but you body will still be exposed to the lotion, and will still absorb it. Good luck. (I am a surfer and have been through some really nasty sunburns)

Just wait it out. The same thing happened to me a WEEK before prom, and I flipped out! But even a week was plenty of time for my massive sunburn [all over my chest, back, shoulders, and arms!] to peel, and the night of prom, I was very comfortable in my strapless dress.

You can't stress over it. Let it peel, exfoliate it if you wish, and keep it moist for sure, but DON'T try to 'stop' the peeling.

Peeling is an essential part of a sunburn, where the damaged cells are removed. This process is important because the cells run the risk of going haywire and becoming cancerous. So the best thing to do is just let your body do its thing!

You'll be glowig in no time! =]
