Milk, vinegar, witch’s hazel…. There’s a LOT on here!!

Glad the fan trick worked for you. That’s all that really helps me. That and Advil.

yeah, fill the bath with milk and soak in it
ive never done this myself as ive never EVER been sunburnt (haha) - but nor do i tan which isnt fair is it? - but, ive seen it on tv…and the guy ate cornflakes in the bath aswell, but dont do that, thats..thats..ugh..

i took a first aid course, and they specifically said not to go try crazy remedies that sound too good to be true.

okay okay, i saw it on a kids programme…
but, its worth a shot!

lol well, whatever u do, let me know if it worked =]

It can’t hurt! Unless you’re allergic to milk. Then it can and will. Heh.

You’re welcome!!

cool! so i was right about the milk then! well done ‘hannah montana’…

vinegar

talk to your pharmacist… they will point out the best stuff for you.. ( i know… lol.. been there).. there is actually a special oatmeal bathing solution and another type of lotion that doesnt contain certain things that will make the burn worse.. best of luck..
