I went in the sun Thursday around 90°F temperature and didn't put on sunscreen. Now I'm kind of feeling pretty bad.

Aloe Vera gel will help with the pain.

Don’t do this again. Your risk of skin cancer goes up with every bad sunburn.

Aloe Vera now and every 3 hours for a week. Apply lots. Apply it often.

It does more than just help with the pain and partially repairs the damage done.

And thanks for the reminder to reapply on my knees from the surprise sunny bike ride yesterday.
