Sunburn Remedy

While it's best to soak in a cool bath right away and then apply this compress first, the compress (and the cool bath) help anytime. As soon as you realize you've been sunburned:

Soak in a cool bath for at least 15 minutes.
Pour white vinegar over ice, soak washcloths in the vinegar and apply as a compress. Do this until skin no longer feels like it's radiating heat.
Apply gel with aloe vera and lidocaine.
Repeat as needed.

Tylenol and Ibuprofen help too. :)
