Peeling Skin

So, after my 1st sunburn of the season, I thought I would be able to prevent the peeling from happening... but that is not the case.

Anyway I am a peeling mess and I have a party on Saturday.... can anyone recommend a quick fix?! I have been exfoliating, but I don't think that is enough!

DO NOT EXFOLIATE!!! You are taking off the new skin as well. It slows down the process of healing. There is not much you can do...but def don't exfoliate.

Just tons and tons of lotion. Drink water to stay hydrated and lotion all day when you can.

Slather on a lotion -- keeping your skin hydrated will help minimize the appearance of peeling. I love using Vaseline's Cocoa butter lotion, it is thick and smells nice.
