How To Heal Skin With Sun Damage

Whether you spent too many days running around in the sun as a kid, or just

managed to get one too many major sunburns in your life, you know that the

damage that your skin sustains below the surface never actually goes away. But

if you accidentally forgot to reapply the sunblock and are dealing with a little bitty burn, there are definitely ways to heal a sunburn fast.

Of course, you must remember that you can’t fully undo sun damage. You can ease the pain and get your complexion looking healthy again, and you can take

the steps necessary to prevent future sunburns, but damage below the skin’s

surface accumulates over time, which is how skin cancers such as melanoma form. The best thing to do is use a natural skin lotion sunblock with an SPF of 30

or above every single time you head outdoors, and perhaps go even higher with

the UV protection if you know you’ll be out in the sun for hours.

But right now, you’re focused on the burn you’re suffering this second. The first

step is to remove yourself from the sun, by getting indoors or into the shade. If

it’s a painful burn, you can take an aspirin to ease the pain; otherwise, a cool, damp cloth applied on the area will be enough to remove the heat from the

sunburn.

Next, use an aloe vera healing gel to soothe the inflamed area, and once the

skin is no longer tender, you can use other herbal skin care products that

contain aloe to rehydrate and calm burned flesh. Don’t forget to drink plenty of

cool fluids to rehydrate your body as well. If your skin still feels dry once the sunburn is mostly healed, use the best face lotion for women that you can get,

and apply it regularly until your complexion is hydrated again.

If you’ve had bad sunburns in the past, the best thing you can do to prevent

future skin issues is to protect yourself with sunblock, and cover yourself from

head to toe in it. When you’re not in the sun, keep your skin hydrated daily with a natural skin cream to make up for the dehydration that comes with sun-

parched skin. Try to stay in the shade instead of in direct sunlight whenever

possible though; remember that your burns from the past have stuck with you,

and can cause problems for you later in life if you don’t take care of yourself now.

Keep healing gel on-hand so any time you get a little too much sun, you can apply it for one of the ways to heal a sunburn fast. But it’s always better if you

don’t get burned at all.
