To draw the heat out, you can use wash cloths soaked in tea. It really does work, and to help with the pain, definitely aloe vera.

I've heard to use vinager, it never worked with me though, plus it stinks. You can take a hot shower, that's always what I do, but still, it gradually takes time for the redness to go away.

Oh my god, a hot shower when you have sunburn, thats agony.
I agree, aloe vera lotion is the nicest. I rub that all over my body whenever I get sunburn, it helps cool it down and has a really nice feeling. Baby lotion also helps soothe the pain.

get some real aloe vera plant... all you need is a tiny piece, that juice will go a long way. plus, you can plant it in a pot, and it will grow quite large, multiplying the "arms" you have. i guess it's nice not being pale, not having to worry about sunburn even when mowing lawns or doing carts at work

I am burned as we speak, and it hurts!!! I went canoeing last week and got burned on my back where I could not reach to put sunscreen. The best thing for you is to keep it moisturized, with ALOE VERA, lotions without perfume etc... and drink lots of water. Coa Coa butter does a good job as well. The thing for me that sucks is I can't put anything on it, seeing I could not reach to put on sunscreen, I surely can't reach to put lotion And it itches like a SOB!!!!!

Being redhead, I have been burned a lot. Aloe works, I've heard the vinager bath works well. Also, if you get a towel wet with cold water (it helps if you put it over the a/c or a fan) and put it on the burn, it draws out the heat. One more thing I tried once is tomato slices. For some reason (I'm not sure why) it works to keep the skin from blistering. But aloe is most def the best thing as long as it's pure. I feel for you guys! Sunburns are NO FUN! Try BullFrog next time... I swear by the stuff, and have even been able to tan through it (and for me that's saying a lot since I usually just burn and peel in that order).
