so we have all been there you spend the
day at the beach and you left with a
sunburn maybe forgot to reapply or when
you're going in and out of the water
you're kind of rubbing under your eyes
that's really where my kids end up
getting it as well as me so what do you
do
joining me now to discuss natural and
home remedies for a bad sunburn is
Noreen young good morning thank you for
being here and perfect timing too as
we're looking over our shoulder right
now and seeing all of these people
actually who are headed out to the beach
and you hope that they certainly
remember to reapply and you know there
are sometimes there are things I have to
I have to tell you my kids will be in
the pool and they're rubbing and I don't
even see it and even though I reapply
it's hard and I don't have a low just
sitting around the house so there are
some things so that maybe even have in
the pantry that will help an apple site
cider really apple cider vinegar is
wonderful for a variety of things but
one is to take a bath in it
and you'd pour a cup into the water and
take a nice cool bath and it really
cools you down and takes down the
inflammation because the sunburn is your
body with inflammation and you've ticked
it off and now a baking soda can help as
well
eating soda in a bath is great too you
do two cups of that and place it into
the water and bathe in that and that
will help you and for itching by the way
oatmeal oatmeal yes how much oatmeal I
you know I've heard about oatmeal baths
and I'm envisioning all of this sort of
floating at the top but you can float it
at the top or you could put in a little
sachet a little muslin bag at your
little cheesecloth that kind of thing
and at least a cup at least at least a
cup okay that makes sense yeah the
morning does stop the itching and leads
to peeling and then you're like in
trouble and don't pick the peel it's so
tempting choice I mean particularly with
the little ones but it's such a good
point now what about lavender and
chamomile yes
lavender works wonders on the body and
not only is it relaxing and make you
feel good but it's also good as an
antiseptic and for a burn I like to put
it in a spray bottle and spray it on the
body you could smell it and put it on
your hand so I diluted that with water
and some essential oils and that's it in
your bath okay do you put the leaves or
do you want to buy like an essential oil
so oil
okay yeah and that's what you put the
bat that really make a big difference
and um allo is your friend and a low and
not only cutting the leaf and grabbing
that big-time beautiful glossy love over
here that you've done to your skin it's
also great to put in a gel form and
place an ice cube tray take fries and I
squirted some in there and then after
you freeze it you say fantastic you take
the cube and you place it onto the face
or onto the shoulders or unto the chest
and try and calm down the inflammation I
also like to make a little aloe vera gel
to the beach I love this too because
this can help you really get it all over
the area too but sometimes I've even
burn on your shoulders and on your back
and on your arms it might be difficult
to keep cutting this out you know at
that time and right on yes and milk is
wonderful for the burn and you place it
onto a cotton pad or on a washcloth and
warm milk you don't want you want cool
milk not freezing milk and what it will
do is calm the burn as well and then if
you have sunburned eyelids and this has
happened you take black tea you wet the
teabag with cool water do a compress to
both eyes and it'll calm the burn it is
amazing I had I got when I was a
teenager and being silly and thought
that for whatever reason this fair skin
would ever tan which has never happened
I got too much Sun I mean I was so
swollen and this saved me yes you can
but I like to do it as an I compress it
and you need to stay hydrated yeah and
you know not just water coconut water a
beauty water with aloe and cucumber I
mean that makes you feel cooler and then
of course the sports drink and if you
really got a burn you really need to
protect yourself and wear a hat so hence
might do not disturb hat and you know
enjoy the the beautiful water or
wherever you are but wear a hat ever
because cancer of the scalp is very
popular yes and I say years in the lips
and everything excellent advice Thank
