What should I do if my face gets sunburned and peeling?

Some people have sensitive skin. If they are exposed to the sun's ultraviolet rays for a long time, they may get sunburned on their faces. Even if their skin is not sensitive, but they are exposed to the sun for a long time, they may get sunburned. When the skin is sunburned, it will not only be red and painful, but also peeling. So what should we do to make the skin recover as soon as possible?

1. After cleaning, you must immediately calm down and reduce inflammation

You can use a soothing toner as the primary first aid measure. In addition to specific toners, skin care products with a soothing effect include products containing aloe vera, loofah water, cucumber slices, cucumber puree, etc., which have the effect of cooling and calming the skin.

2. Use moisturizing products with a refreshing texture and simple ingredients

If your skin feels tight, it is recommended to use moisturizing products with a refreshing texture and simple ingredients, because the skin is in an unstable state at this time and moisture is easily lost. Many people like to use facial masks after sun exposure to save their skin from dehydration. It is best to choose a facial mask with better moisturizing effect. After application, don’t forget to apply a thin layer of moisturizing product to lock in moisture. With effective maintenance, the skin can generally return to its original healthy state in about 3 to 5 days.

3. Severely sunburned skin requires a "progressive" approach to care

If the sunburn is severe, first apply egg white evenly on your face, which has anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing effects. Then wash it off after about 2-3 minutes to avoid tightness and discomfort caused by the egg white drying. After applying egg white, the most important task is to replenish the skin's moisture by using a moisturizing lotion with mild ingredients or a moisturizing essence with simpler ingredients.

Severely sunburned skin requires "progressive" care because the skin is severely dehydrated and must slowly repair lost moisture. Use the above method and then slowly return to the original skin care products after a period of time to allow the skin to gradually adapt and avoid excessive irritation.

When going out, be sure to pay attention to sun protection for your skin, apply sunscreen appropriately, wear a sun hat and other sun protection equipment, so as to minimize sunburn. If symptoms of sunburn occur, if the condition is mild, you can take the above measures to relieve it. If the condition is severe, you need to see a doctor immediately.
