A8. In Taiwan's summer, outdoor UV levels are often excessive, and consumers can easily be exposed to prolonged sun exposure during outdoor activities, leading to sunburn. I recommend that after getting sunburned, the best way to care for the skin is through cold compresses, which remain effective within two days after sun exposure. For mild sunburn, it is recommended to drink plenty of fluids, with plain water or sports drinks being highly recommended. As for the skin, continue applying cold compresses and use soothing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-allergy skincare products, such as those containing chamomile, witch hazel, and aloe vera.
Additionally, it’s important to note that a small number of people may be allergic to natural aloe vera, so use it with caution. For severe sunburn, it may be necessary to consult a doctor for treatment, and in more severe cases, oral or injectable corticosteroids may be required.
