Over exposure to the ultraviolet rays from the sun especially when they are at the high can cause sun burns.

Try these home remedies for sun burns –

  • Put a cup of oatmeal in water bath with warm water and leave for 15 minutes. Soak yourself in it and wipe your skin very gently after bath so as to keep a thin layer of oatmeal on the skin. This remedy will help in relieving the itchiness and soothe the sun burn skin on your nose.
  • Apply fresh cucumber on your nose this will help to heal the burnt skin.
  • Mustard oil when applied on your nose and allowed to dry will help to draw the heat out of the skin.
  • To avoid skin burns in future don’t forget to wear a sunscreen lotion with 25-30 SPF 20 minutes before stepping out in sun.
  • Always protect your skin with a hat, umbrella or sunglasses to avoid a sun burn.
