You don't have any of this?

Cornstarch. Add enough water to cornstarch to make a paste, says Fredric Haberman, M.D. Apply directly to the sunburn.

Vegetable slices. Some people get relief from thin slices of raw cucumber or potato, he adds. They feel cool and may help reduce inflammation on small areas. Apple slices may also work.

Lettuce. A soothing homemade solution comes from New York City skin care specialist Lia Schorr. Boil lettuce leaves in water. Strain, then let the liquid cool several hours in the refrigerator. Dip cotton balls into the liquid and gently press or stroke onto irritated skin.

Yogurt. Plain yogurt is both cooling and soothing, she says. Apply to all sunburned areas. Rinse off in a cool shower, then gently pat skin dry.

Tea bags. If your eyelids are burned, apply tea bags soaked in cool water to decrease swelling and help relief pain, says Schorr.
