7 tips to help you sleep better with a sunburn

A woman applying sun cream to her arms.

I’m not sure if you’ve noticed, but the UK has been experiencing a bit of a heatwave. While you’re out basking in the sunny weather, it’s always important to apply sun cream to keep your skin healthy and protected, otherwise you could experience an ever-dreaded sunburn.

Despite it being quite funny to see your friend’s arm looking like a Drumstick Squashie (look it up!), sunburn is no joke. Not only is it painful and unattractive, but it can cause skin damage and lead to more serious issues like skin cancer. Sunburn can also be extremely uncomfortable when you’re trying to sleep, as it takes between four to six hours for sunburn and its symptoms to fully develop.
