For medicinal purposes, aloe vera is most commonly used externally to treat various skin conditions, and burns. Not only does it soothe the skin, ease pain and reduce inflammation, studies have been done to show that using aloe as a topical treatment to burns will help speed up the healing recovery process.

Aloe Vera works well as most answers state. If you have a plant you can use it by breaking off a leaf and sqeezing the liquid out. I would suggest buying a ready made gel as handling the plant can cause itchiness and soreness from being scratched from the leaves.

It is the aloe vera plant. You break off a piece of it, and rub it on the burn. (The liquid). It should give you some relief.

Aloe vera takes the heat out as well as heals.

Aloe Vera will soothe your burn but after it heals i suggest cocoa butter to stop any scarring it may leave.
