Maybe you left your sunscreen in the car. Maybe you missed a spot. Maybe you were just like, Screw it, I'm going to get a tan! But instead you ended up looking like a boiled lobster. Question is, how can you reduce the pain and make your skin look less painful? One thing is to take aspirin to get rid of the inflammation, says Manhattan dermatologist Debra Jaliman. Follow up by applying a cold compress, soaked in skim milk instead of water, to draw out the heat and sting. A moisturizer containing soothing ingredients, such as Clinique's After Sun Rescue Balm (Clinique.com), will also help you cool off and keep your skin from drying out. After that? Consider a cocktail in the shade.
