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

Just slather it on as you need it. A little carton goes a long way.
I used to live on St Croix and it worked wonders healing the sun broiled scandinavian tourists.
If nothing else, try rubbing it with plain milk, Somehow the protein in the milk seems to help the burned skin.

cool ideas but what about both sunburn & windburn as I experienced this past weekend rock hounding ? LOL my poor mother-in-law about had a stroke when she got up Sunday and saw how red I was (I used to be a red-head with fair skin!LOL still have the fair skin but the old auburn red locks have turned silver & grey !LOL)
Oh and I had suntan lotion on and lots to drink as well .. LOL we were above 10,000 feet !
