i am soooo sunburned! we went to the beach this past weekend for a bridal shower for my mom. lots of fun, but i, the pale redhead, overdid it on the sun. yes, the ocean breeze hit me with the stupid stick and i skipped out on the sunscreen (on my legs only, for whatever odd reason that may have been) and fell asleep on the sand. i want to do my couch to 5k this morning, but i think it's going to have to wait. we'll see how soon my red rodeo chaps return to their normal color and i don't wince every time i bend my knees!

    I went to a horse race on Saturday and the sun got my fair Irish skin as well. You are not alone.

    OUCH! I've been there!

    Natural lotion with alone and TONS of water is the only advice I can offer.

    Being a redhead is like a handicap when it comes to the sun! :glasses:

    Aloe Vera gel is your best friend. Throw it in the refrigerator and once it's cold, it feels AMAZING on your skin. Reapply as much as you want. :happy:
