wear sunscreen next time. ick...
well dont wear face make-up because when your skin starts to peel it will get kinda ucky and disgusting. at least that happened to me once. i agree with the aloe vera suggestion. it takes away the hurt and redness. just drink lots of water. and stay out of the sun. |

nothing will help for tomorrow
wear Aloe Vera gel or lotion (its usually green) or split the steams off an aloe vera plant if you have one and rub the gel inside. Its sticky put it works and it eases the pain. |

Yes, use Aloe Vera. Or try a soft lotion that won't clog your pores.
Next time use sunscreen. --I feel bad for you people. I have never gotten sunburned! God bless sunscreen! lol |

Yea I went to the beach on Saturday too and got a sun burn. You need to get some sort of aloe vera lotion or something called soothacane from Banan Boat or something like that.

I think you could use conceler for your face but after two days, your skin will start to peel and the redness will steadily fade. Just keep your sunburn moisturized with lotion

Well i don't get sunburned, i use SUNSCREEN t0o... lols (which you should have done..)
Anways..No there is no possible way that you can get less red by tomorrow and without buying something..unless you use a cover up with makeup . However, look around the house or ask your mom if you have Aloe Vera, but you'll be peeling the next day that's the only side affect. The redness will somewhat decrease. Oh and you can use Neosporin!

Use aloe and bring lotion to school so you can apply on it daily. Umm yeah, it's really impossible to reduce the redness that fast so you're just going to have to suck it up. Who cares what everyone is going to think??? It's not like a life or death situation.
You'll live. Trust me. |

Calm down because it's not that big of a deal. Yes, I went to the beach this past weekend & I have some sunburn too. I'm still living
 . Get some Aloe to put it on your skin. The sunburn will fade so it's not as bright. If you want to, you can buy a little plastic bottle of it and maybe put it in your purse at summer school. Go to the bathroom & apply it. Whatever you do, don't wear face makeup such as foundation or concealer. It will look TERRIBLE. Because your face & neck will be 2 different colors & look extremely bad  . Next time, I suggest you put sunscreen on, and before you get into water let is soak in so that it doesn't come off in the pool. Every few hours re-apply the sunscreen.Hope I helped.. lol i'm like a master at this. |

you CANT make it go away by tomorrow.
i got sunburnt too. i went on a bike trip. biking like 6 hours? perhaps more. First, it would stay red for a few days, then it'll go away put sunscreen on it. it'll make it less noticable |
