Sunburn relief

One sunny day I went outdoor swimming and got sunburned all over:( To make things worst school was going to start a week later...so i needed something to heal my skin. The answer...WATERMELON SKIN. Basically, after you eat watermelon, use the skin on your sunburns and gently move it around. Do this for about 10-15 minutes 2-3 times a day. After a week the sunburn totally DISSAPEARED!!! i was so relieved and walked into school much more confidentally:)
