If you can, go to a dermatologist ASAP, they can tell you what to do and maybe give you some type of lotions, etc. If you can't do this, then go to a Rite Aid or Walgreens and buy cocoa butter. The pure cocoa butter (Queen Helene brand is usually easy to find) it works great for peeling and sunburns, etc. Use it every day and you should be fine. When my FH and I went to turks and caicos on a vacation, we both burned the first day there and were peeling a lot. We both have different skin types and the cocoa butter worked wonders. GL!

The best thing to do is slather yourself with cocoa butter. I hate the smell of that stuff but it totally works. You should be fine in a couple of days

I hope you are right and it works

OMG.... Whenever I peel and lotion up, I feel like it just makes it worse (ie: it keeps peeling). Start doing it now so everything is peeled off by your wedding. It should only take 1-2 days. Also, showering makes everything worse, so that will help speed along the peeling process. That s uc ks so much, I am so sorry! It is unnecessary stress for you. Everything will be gone though in time for your wedding!!!!!! Don't worry!!
