It will probably brown down a bit by then. Just keep the aloe and lotion on it so it won't peel until after friday. If you let it dry out, it will probably peel before friday.

I burnt myself at a show I think two weeks ago and just started peeling a few days ago. If you do start peeling just get in the shower and scrub until all the skin is gone....gross but best way to not end up lookin like a lizard.

depending on how bad it is, it may go away. Aloe Vera+ Vitamin E and moisturizers (possibly one that is aloe+vitamin e?) will help a lot.

I'd slather up every 20 minutes even. Your skin will be like a babies ***.

Another thing I do is get a very cold wet rag, or ice pack (wrapped in a towel!!!!) and put it on the affected areas, or at least the ones they will see (for graduation). Seems to work well for me. I've got bad 1st degree burns to go away in hours that way.

i almost started a thread on this two days ago when i got back from the creek. Myself am suffering form a hellacious sunburn, bubbling blisters that is. I have kept aloe on mine for the past three days now, and let it dry for about 4-5 hours and re apply.

THIS SHIT HURTS!!
