Best Remedies for Sunburns
With summertime activities outdoors, and even with sun protection, sunburns can occur. I know because I was caught unprepared for an event I attended last week and now have a nice red hue to show for it. I know there are a few recipes for homemade sunscreen, although I've never made my own. I have relied on sunburn relief products in the past, but I prefer vinegar as my go-to solution for stinging, burning sunburn pain. I soak a washcloth in vinegar and set the cool cloth on the sunburned area until the stinging subsides or the cloth gets warm again. As the sunburn heals, I reduce the vinegar and make the solution more 50-50 with water.
Do you have a favorite sunscreen recipe? What is your go-to remedy for taking the sting and burn out of sunburns?
Remember, too, with sunscreen, anything over 50 SPF isn't really doing anything.
Have a safe, sunburn-free summer!!
