Milk and honey? Never heard of that kind of home remedy though I've heard that egg whites (or was it egg yokes?) helps with burns
I feel much better now as long as I don't cover the irritated skin

They say taking a milk bath helps take away the sting of sunburn. I wouldn't exactly say to fill the entire bathtub with milk, but fill it with water (I would say lukewarm, and you should probably scrub prior to getting in for the soak) and maybe add 4 cups of milk to it... maybe a few tablespoons of honey, too. Then of course, make sure you rinse off well after soaking and put on plenty of lotion (some with aloe vera in it would help greatly).
Of course, the only time I got sunburned, I didn't really do anything about it, since I was still on vaction in the Bahamas at the time XD; I didn't even know I'd been burned until I felt all this prickling on my skin like needles XD; It was painful, but I don't regret getting sunburned because I rarely get it and that was a first for me... a new, unique experience XD And something to look back on X3

lol. 'i said SIT THE H--- DOWN!' i thought that was funny. maybe you should try stretching. that could help ease the stiffness. i hope your sunburn heals soon.

@Artgrrl:
Yes, milk & honey baths are good healing remedies =3 Mostly the milk, which is good for both insect bites and burns.
That's good to hear =3 I still recommend the lotion, tho X3
