A Soon as you get a sunburn you should find an olivera (savila)...And cut it in half and rub the gel on your sunburn and that should heal it..It always works on me..good luck!

I've checked all over the internet because I too have a really bad sunburn and I dont want it to peel but the MD websites say that there is very little you can do to stop the peeling or to even lessen the peeling..

1. drink lots of fluids I mean LOTS (particularly water)
2. eat vitamin E and C
3. lots of lotion and aloe vera but get the ones that are 100% unfragranced because that makes your sunburn worse and also stings!

hope that helps!

If you get a sunburn take Aspirin ASAP. Within a couple of hours your sunburn will turn into a beautiful tan. Sounds crazy but it really works! Be sure to use a good moisturizer after you shower and avoid your loofah!!! Stick with a soft washcloth until your skin is no longer 'crinkly.' Not a very scientific term, I admit, but if you've ever had peeling skin you know what I mean. DO NOT SCRUB OR OVER-AGITATE YOUR SKIN! It is vvveeerrryyy DELICATE!!!

If your skin is peeling opt for a sugar/salt scrub (you can pick one up in the cosmetics department of any drugstore). The scrub will make the peeling worse at first but after a couple of scrubs your skin will be baby smooth. And stay hydrated! and keep out of the sun/tanning beds for a little while. Gatorade, water, juice; NO ALCOHOL!!!
