Today, I decided to lay out and tan. I fell asleep and got sun burned and bitten numerous times by mosquitoes. If I scratch my itch, the burn hurts terribly. If I don't scratch it, it itches terribly. FML

Try ice-cubes on the bite. They'll relieve the itch and help take away the burning sensation. Just wrap the ice-cube in something like papertowels first though.

Take an oatmeal bath it will rehydrate you..Aveeno has a good one. Yeah it may sound weird but it helps with the burn. Then put a good moisturizing lotion or pure aloe over the burn. For the bug bites dab a bit of rubbing alcohol on them it usually takes the itch away.

I wouldn't go so far as to say you *deserve it*, but you brought it on yourself from your carelessness. I recommend Aloe Vera gel for the sunburn (I usually don't bother with this myself as I don't mind being sunburned much, but if it's really bad, go for it), and tiger balm for the insect bites.

Hope you learned your lesson. ALWAYS use suntan lotion. I always set a timer to wake me if I fell asleep. One severe sunburn teaches you quickly.

Well, be careful anyway. Black people are capable of getting sunburned also.

I got one, but it apparently doesn`t work, at least not if bugs love you. less than half an hour reading in the garden and I had six bites, but then again I live in Florida.

Don't worry, the melanoma is going to hurt far worse than both, and then it will kill you. Cheers!

Girls are so obsessed with getting tans...haven't you heard of skin cancer? Now normally I'd say use sunblock, but that might defeat the purpose of the tanning (I don't know, I'm not one to lay out in the sun to get tan, probably because no matter what I always burn and peel but that's beside the point). So if you couldn't use sunblock, YDI it for falling asleep. You also deserve it for being obsessed with getting a tan (overrated).
