Toolbox of Health: A sunburn not only gives you inflamed skin that itches and hurts but it can also bring permanent damage to your skin as well as your overall health. The next time you find yourself feeling the burn, try this WON Tip! Apple Cider Vinegar is one of the most effective and quick remedies for sunburn. When apple cider vinegar (ACV) is applied topically for sunburn, it acts as an astringent. The work of an astringent is to shrink or constrict body tissues. Thus, it will reduce inflammation caused due to sunburn. ACV also helps in balancing the pH levels of your burned skin which means it will balance the acidity v/s alkalinity of your skin and thus promote healing. When you have mild sunburn, you may expect to treat it just by applying apple cider vinegar once or twice. Advanced stages of sunburn may require more ACV to be applied over time.
