[DONNA1458]

What is best to buy from chemist for sunburn, aftersun irritates me. Thanks

E45 lotion helps me but my Mum swore by calamine lotion.
Just dont get sand in your sheets.......

[grasscarp]

I agree calamine is the one for real relief. Oh and cool/cold baths which I had to do once following getting burnt in Cyprus in February!

[T&S]

Sudocrem is very good for sunburn

[puternut]

I would recommend Aloe Vera oil of some sort - AV juice poured on is a temporary solution

Or Vitamin E Oil

[gingejbee]

Wouldn't use anything oily or greasy. Aloe vera gel is what we use.

[erin-x]

We use Aloe Vera gel as well... Brilliant if you keep it in the fridge!

[Im a BusyBee]

If you use P20 as a suncream in the first place, use it according to the instructions i can guarantee you wont be needing aftersun as its absolutely brilliant!

[gingejbee]

OK - one step further. Stay out of the sun and you won't be needing anything!

[joggerjayne]

Yep, aloe vera gel.
