Don't drink it. Put it on the skin. But I believe it is primarily used for poison ivy and such, so you may not want to use it for a sunburn.
You could make a mixture of water and a little vinegar in a spray bottle - it helps with cooling / soothing bad sunburns. But don't drink that either.

um... it's calamine LOTION for a reason. you don't drink it, you put it on your skin. drinking it won't help your sunburn, but i suppose it might just help to beef up the human gene pool a bit.

Easy, it will PUT YOU OUT OF your sunburn pain!! in an absolute FINAL WAY!!! It kills, pure and simply, it is a lotion you
very gently dab on your skin, If you drink it { last will and testament, must be available} + a very good funeralplan. So do the right thing!!! RUB IT IN ,DO NOT "GLUG" IT IN

You do NOT drink calamine lotion.
You rub it on your body.
It cools you down.

try chamomile tea. Brew some up, cool it, and gently bathe the sunburn. Also put a nice smooth flat bedsheet in the freezer. When it is cold wrap around yourself. This is best great for trying to sleep with a shoulder/back burn
