Sunburn

[doodab]

I'm so sunburnt, I was standing by the side of the road and looked over my shoulder to see 20 cars waiting for me to change to green.

That'll probably happen when you start drinking

Look on the bright side, as a permie you can call in sick.

A small bottle of MTFU should suffice.

whatever you get try and get one of the squirty ones as opposed to the creams you need to spread....

can make a difference if you are very sunburned

[scooterscot]

Got really bad sunburn across my shoulders and back. Not enough slap obviously. Does anyone have any suggestions on the best after sun to use?

Ioidt.

I frazzled my arms 2 years ago, end-to-end blisters, plain yoghurt from the fridge worked best.

Aloe vera was sticky and cumbersome and most creams did nothing.

Doc prescribed me this when I turned crispier than a crisp.

Brulidine cream

But for regular sunburn, you're probably good with E45 or similar unscented moisturiser.

Lots and lots of moisturiser if that's all you can lay your hands on. You will be applying it by the bucket load as your burnt skin will just keep on sucking it in. It does help.

I had some proper burn treatment stuff I bought in France that was amazing but I'm buggered if I can remember what it was called. I have found aloe vera based stuff to be pretty good as well.
