I got a sunburn on Saturday when we went to a water park. I believe it is a second degree burn because it looks like 2 or 3 blisters are forming. I'm burned on my face, shoulders, and a little on my back. My forehead seems to hurt worst and seems to be the worse part burned. If you''ve had a sunburn, then you know how you loose water through your skin, and your skin gets really oily and greasy. I know that most facial cleaners probably aren't good for sunburned skin, but I was wondering if unscented babywipes could be used to remove the excess oil and greasiness. I was thinking baby wipes because they are soft and the unscented kind seem to be good for sensitive skin.
Please don't tell me about how I should have used sunscreen because I did use sunscreen. I wore SPF 45 and reapplied it every 45 minutes. The problem was, I have skin that is really sensitive to heat AND the sun, so it didn't work like it should have.
Thanks for your help in advance.
