It wouldn't hurt, but it isn't as effective as other remedies. Anything that provides cooling will help ease the pain and draw out the heat. Aloe Vera gel will help and you should avoid putting any oils or lotions on it. A hot shower will remove the heat in the skin. I know, I said hot. When cooks burn themselves, they hold their hand over the over to remove the heat from the wound. When it stops burning, it's done. Heat removes heat. The proper remedy for any burn is cold water and exposure to cold to remove the heat and stop further damage.

Yes! This is a great, effective idea. Tomatoes contains lycopene- antioxidant, natural anti-inflammatory- which helps soothe most burns. We use this trick frequently in the restaurant industry.

Depends on how bad the sunburn is. This stuff works:

1) Fresh or Pure 100% Aloe Vera Gel

2) Fresh Cucumber Slices

3) Aloe Vera Lotion or Mask for body
