NATURAL REMEDIES FOR SUNBURN


Probably the most embarrassing moment is the one when you get to the beach in hopes of coming back with a good tan, but instead, you get back home all red-faced and sunburned.
While applying the sunscreen is the surest way to prevent one, there can be instances where you may forget to re-apply the sunscreen and suffer a sunburn. For all those moments, here’s something to help. 
Some super easy home remedies to deal with a sunburn.
Potato
Potatoes are known as nature’s best pain relievers and have been used since ages to tackle minor skin irritations like scratches, bites and burns. The juice of a potato can be wonderfully effective in dealing with a sunburn- it may help reduce redness and pain almost instantly.

Cold Milk
Cold milk is one of the simplest ways to deal with a sunburn. The instant coolness of the milk will ease the heat and also create a layer of protein to protect the skin and promote healing of the tissues.

Cornstarch
Cornstarch has a smooth and silky texture, and is an impressive way to tackle a sunburn. Applying a mixture of cornstarch and water to the affected area can relieve pain and also reduce redness.

Aloe Vera
This one probably didn’t come as a surprise, aloe vera has been known for its cooling and soothing properties, and is used to deal with a wide range of skin conditions. Aloe Vera gel is thought to reduce redness associated with a sunburn almost instantly.

Vinegar
While you may not really like the idea of applying vinegar on your sunburned back, it is actually a good way to heal sunburns and even burned tissue. It is thought to provide relief from pain too!

Oats
You may be gobbling this one down for your breakfast in an attempt to shed a few pounds, but the uses of oats don’t just end there. It has been found that the polysaccharides in oatmeal help coat and heal the sunburned skin and keeps it hydrated and moist.

Yogurt
Yogurt is often used a natural probiotic agent, but it also contains several enzymes that help promote healing of the skin, especially sunburned skin. If you find yourself red and sunburn, slathering on some fresh yogurt can help you recover faster.

Cucumber
Cucumber’s cooling and soothing properties make it a superstar when it comes to dealing with skin troubles. It is thought to provide instant relief from pain associated with a sunburn thanks to its naturalanaesthetic properties, and may also reduce redness and swelling.
