Just got a bit of a burn on the back of my neck (and the front)... not sure what to put on it to reduce the sting.
What do you put on your sunburns?

Apple cider vinegar! (And extra sunblock the next day.) Dab it on after you take a shower.

I use burn gel - like to treat actual burns in the kitchen. It works so much better than aloe

I use aloe gel - always feels sooo much better! Cold tea also helps.

@mrbee: I read the thread as: 'what do you put on your sideburns?' Hahaha, I was going to say this is probably not the right group to ask that
SUNburns... Aloe gel & lots of Motrin, Motrin makes the biggest difference! Sometimes the numbing spray, but I forget that it's called. They say milk in a lukewarm bath helps, but I've never tried it.

I had a bottle of it when I went to Hawaii for the first time. Stupid me didn't remember to pick some up when we went last year.

Ibuprofen and cotton balls/rounds soaked in milk (the fattier the better).

Aloe gel has always worked great for me. It relieves the pain and also seems to make the burn fade away faster.

aloe vera! My mom actually has an aloe plant, I just have to break off one of the stems and get the gel inside. Feels so good!
