ice water! it cools the skin, and boy does it feel good!
or the lotions you can buy at walmart, and pretty much any other place. i use neautrogena after-sun. it minimizes the signs of short term sun damage. they sting a bit, but its worth it when you go to school the next day with a beautiful tan/no burn!
and for what to wear, dont wear white or any light colours, actually, dont wear too dark colours either! go for a purple/darker pink or blue/green. dont wear black.
hmm.. you could try on a deep red shirt and it may look your face look less red. just try it on, maybe, it might work.

To take out the redness of the burn you will need
*ice
*water
*vinagar
*and salt
put it into a bowl and let it get cool. take a wash rag and soak it up and rinse it out and put it onto the burnt part and take it off until the wash rag gets warm. Do it again until you get tired of it. It works really well! i also got burned today and I'm going to tdo the same thing!
As for the shirt I would reccomend yellow or blue. Do not wear a red or pink/light pink it will bring out the redness in your face and arms!!! Done it before and I looked like a freaking cherry! Good thing I changed before I went out!

dont wear any pink or red that will emphasizes the burn in your skin. also dont anything too dark like black or too light like white... but otherwise i dont think theres a particular color that will make you appear less red. i dont kno what the weather is like where you live but cover up as much as you can.
lather on some aloe vera (can be found at any drugstore). this will help soothe your burn and i think it helps get rid of the burn faster too.
dont worry girl people will understand and forget about it... you will be tan in a few days anyway and everyone will be jealous!

What ever you do don't soak in cold water it closes your pores so heat won't escape...Soak in hot water i know it sound crazy but it well make the red go away and the heat will escape...and use aloe sun burn gel and put in the freezer so when in starts to hurt put it on!! and don't wear red wear white or another light color... wear a light top not heavy...I hope this helps!!!

Sorry, sweeite, it's gonna show now matter what color you wear. Rethink those sweatpants, though--they're gonna make you miserable. How about one of those loose, swirly skirts, preferably cotton?
