I went tanning today, but appearantly my tanning oil had no spf! So I got a horrible sunburn, I do look tan but most of me is red. The worst part is I didnt spend the same amount of time on my back side as I did on my front, sooo there's a clear difference especially in my legs. And I need my good tan by Saturday.. Help? Please and Thank you ")

It souns weird I know but buttermilk is really good to calm and soothe the redness... Just mix a cup of milk and like 1-2 tbs of white vinegar and take a sponge and rub urself down... Should help with the redness... And if you have peeling rub the area with honey gently- and for the unevenness use a gradual tanner until Saturday it'll even you out but keep you lookin natural since you actually did get some real sun:) hope that helps a little:)
