Thursday, June 8th, 2006
Its summer time and if your fair skinned its sun burn time too. Take a old tube sock or equivalent and fill it with oatmeal (Not Instant). Fill up your bathtub with water (should be comfortably warm) . Place the sock with the oatmeal in the water and submerge it. After soaking for 30 – 40 minutes rinse with cool water.
Oatmeal: The oats soothes itching, Beard says. Make an oatmeal mask and let it sit on your face for five minutes if you have a little sunburn or sunkissed face. Then rinse with cold water. Beard says the process takes away the flushed look, and it is perfect for when you’re uncomfortable from the sun.
