How long after a sun burn for it to peel?



I went out to the beach Saturday and got a burn on my legs for being out for about one pm until eleven pm. That's quite a bit of sun. My legs were pretty red and sore, but no blistering. It's now Thursday and I was wondering how long will it take to peel? Or if it won't because it hasn't yet? Since Monday I've been putting aloe body lotion on them twice a day. Could that be making it take longer to peel?

  1. I tan right away to the point of looking black. But my skin is naturally a little tan to begin with. But from what I know people who have burned start to peel two to three days.

    But I think everyones different.

    Use vitamin E or D lotions I think they work better and heal your skin from UV rays and then apply the aloe after.
