So I got sunburned really bad yesterday and I tried using aloe gel and it made my face sting really bad so I'm wondering ways to soothe my sunburn because it stings really bad even when I lay on my pillow.

Aloe Vera! I put mine in my fridge to keep it cold you can find this at any local drugstore it's really inexpensive and works well! (DOESNT BURN SKIN) Soothes it

Aloe Vera is going to sting at first but once you keep using it you'll be fine

Aloe vera, or After Sun lotion containing Aloe Vera.

If you can get the real plant, that's best, but any 100% Aloe Vera gel or lotion is fine

Aloe! But if you use it on your face make sure you use a moisturizer afterwards :)

Vinegar! put it on a cotton ball and dab out all over your skin for a few minutes and it takes the burn and heat out of the sunburn.

You can go to the store and get aloe that is combined with lotion and that May sting a little bit less.

I got badly burned over the 4th of July weekend, and I constantly used refrigerated aloe vera, moisturizer, Vaseline lotion and spray lotion, and Benadryl itch gel, because peeling skin IS EXTREMELY ITCHY, even still😫
