School starts on Tuesday. Two days. Not only is my jaw line and chin breaking out like CRAZY, but I went to the beach on Wednesday an got sunburn on my forehead. Today is the day that it is starting to peel and so I can't put makeup on which is horrible because not wearing makeup isn't an option for me since my whole lower half of my face is a zit farm. Is there ANY kind of cream or anything I can do to get rid of the peelingness on my forehead? I'm desperate to get rid of it by Tuesday. I have very sensitive skin and I have been moisturizing. Please help me.

Could you exfoliate if it's not too sore? I'm sure that would remove any of the dead skin that's peeling, then you could bring the makeup in :)

Don't exfoliate too much by the way, it will break you out.

Use a plain non fat yogurt mask once a day, this will help exfoliate dead skin cells & skin on your face without the scrubbing & it also helps calm & reduce the acne trust me

I would not exfoliate yet. I recommend a good hydrating facial cleaner like Eucerin or CeraVe (I think Eucerin would be the best for this though) and I also recommend their moisturizers too. I also recommend Aloe Vera (getting the actual plant and extracting it yourself would be better than just the bottle, you can buy at the grocery store). I also recommend using Neosporin and I have had good results with Cortisone cream too (like the kind you use for bug bites). Greek Yogurt is amazing but since you are having so much irritation right now, I would not use this because it usually turns my face super red! It works but I don't think now would be the best time to try it.

In the meantime do not wear makeup! Its just going to make your breakout worse and your sunburn peeling. You can for school but I would wait until Tuesday. Keep your skin as moisturized as you can and drink lots of water!

When I get sunburned I put vanilla extract on it and it goes away quickly.

I would recommend avoiding foundation if possible. It would accentuate the peeling, if absolutely necessary use concealer on your breakout and a light bbcream on top(:
