TAKE THESE EXPERT-BACKED STEPS ASAP.

HOW TO SOOTHE A SUNBURN

As your sunburn tally grows, so do visible signs of skin damage such as wrinkles and dark spots— not to mention your skin cancer risk. Smearing on SPF is your most powerful skin-protection step, but if you don't use it exactly right you may still end up looking a bit rosy (or, on a bad day, lobster-y) after spending a day outdoors. When that happens, these strategies can help provide healing and relief.
