Generally a week or a bit more. Don't get any more because it damages the skin and will show up later when you are older and can cause skin cancer. Use a 30+ factor of sunscreen several times a day when you are outside.

How long does it take a sunburn on the arms to peel?
I had quite bad sunburn, and it took a week to peel. I had convinced myself that it would just brown off, but after exactly a week it started peeling. I think sunburn can start peeling at any time between a day and ten days. But I'm not an expert!!! xx
How do you get rid of sunburn?
Once you have a sunburn the damage is done. There is no quick fix to sunburn treatment. Sunburn can take up to 12-24 hours after sun exposure for you to know the full extent of the damage. It could take several days for your skin to begin the healing process. Here are some sunburn treatment steps you can take to help ease your pain: Keep the skin cool, by applying a damp towel, cold compress (do not use ice) to the affected skin or take a cool bath. Keep the skin moist by apply moisturizing cream (non-oil based), aloe vera cream or gel or other over the counter sunburn products (check with your pharmacist). Leave blisters alone. Do not break them, that will slow down the healing process and risk an infection. To protect the blisters, lightly cover with a non-stick sterile gauge pad. If necessary, take a pain reliever such as, Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin or other). Follow label instructions. Take the pain reliever until redness and soreness is alleviated. Skin that is peeling should be treated gently. Within a few days when the affected area begins to peel continue using moisturizing cream. Use sunscreen liberally and frequently to prevent further damage to your sunburn. Some studies have shown that we only use half of the recommended amount.

How long does it take a face sunburn to go away?
It can take several days for your red sunburn to go away and then you may peel. Try using an ice pack or a mixture of water and white vinegar to cool down the burn. Low fat milk applied with a clean cloth may also help. Apply for fifteen minutes and then reapply after some time off. If you must go in the sun for the next few days, sunscreen and a hat are the best idea. 1% Hydrocortisone cream may also provide some relief.
