I have a sun burn, with no access to vinegar, aloe vera or ibuprofen... I'm at a friends for the next two weeks with no money on either end... what could I possibly do to take the sting out? Please and many thanks for the help! :)

Talk about sunburn.....just got back from Port Aransas beach and I am redder than a boiled lobster.....!

Use Noxzema for now, that will cool some of the burn.

I don't have Noxzema... all I have is Vaseline Intensive care lotion :( and I know for a fact that my friend doesn't... she doesn't have my terrible skin! lol

We have the air on and I'm really really hot too... Sorry for complaining so much!
