Baking soda Dissolve some baking soda in water and make a compress using a clean cloth. Another remedy is to add 1/2 cup of baking soda to a tepid bath and soak. Instead of drying the affected area with a towel, let it air dry. Baking soda is cooling and will help the skin retain moisture.

Baths Add 20 drops of each of lavender and chamomile essential oils to a tubful of cool water and soak for 10 minutes.

Cucumber Rub sunburned area with fresh cucumber slices. They are very cool and will soothe the area.

Milk Make a compress of whole milk (or buttermilk) and apply to the burned area for 20 minutes; repeat every two to four hours. Wash the milk off so you won%26#039;t smell sour!

Yogurt Apply plain yogurt with live cultures, let it stand for a few minutes, then rinse off under cool water. 100% 1 Vote
