Burns:
Soak the burn in
whole milk for fifteen minutes. The fattier the milk, the more effective
it will be because the fat forms a natural emollient covering on
the skin. For a large burn, soak a gauze bandage or small towel
in milk then apply to the burn. Milk works better than water because it pulls the excess moisture out of the skin, and treating a
burn with water requires the additional application of an
emollient.
Sunburn:
Add a bottle of vinegar to a warm
bath. It will soothe the burn and make your skin feel
soft.
