Sunburn and Wedding Dress

I really screwed up and have an awful burn and random splotches.

Can I fix this before 7/16?

Nozema helps..and use Aloe (if you can find pure). That should relieve it.

I would honestly get to the tanning salon to start evening out. You have a good month and a half.

I agree. Wait until your sunburn goes down and then start tanning.

Once the sunburn fades, it might not look as bad.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Either don't go in the sun anymore and it will fade easily in 6 weeks OR you can let the burn go away and 'fake bake' lightly until the week of your wedding....at least this way you can control and/or prevent lines as you can go completely topless. I plan on the fake bake just to have some color....and no lines.

i went to south beach 3 weeks before my wedding
i came back looking like a mess and i used sunblock (not that much lol)

it will def clear up by July!

Keep putting cream on and when you shower use a Loofa pad like Nicole said....that will help

YOu have plenty of time to even it out. Wait for the sunburn to fade and than I would go tanning a few times to even it out.

I know your pain...I mistakenly went to the beach last year and forgot sunscreen...I ended up with sun poisoning! It was the most painful experience of my life!!! NEVER again will i tan without sunscreen!!!!
def use some aloe and creams, then just fake bake until the wedding, you have plenty of time don't worry!
