Avon Aloe Vera Cooling Ice Gel

I've got thick brown hair, olive complexion, generally speaking, my skin can handle anything... just not this...

The second ingredient is "Alcohol"... how can that be any good to skin which has been sunburnt?

Eitherway, I used this product on the 2nd day after being sun burnt... i had a cool shower, then toweled off, and rubbed this in... and BURNED... the itch was unbearable, I was about to wrap a towel and walk to the doctor's on my own. My back was the affected area and was difficult to reach.

For anyone who's sunburnt, take ibuprofen for the inflammation and pain, use cold water, soaked towels or ice, just don't use anything with alcohol. It'll only hurt more. Not just avon products, any brand.

I have blonde hair, thus I burn. I've tried all sorts of after sun and I have to say that Aloe Vera Cooling Ice Gel by Avon beats everything hands down! It smells gorgeous, it is really soothing and really does the trick if you have sore skin from a day of sunning yourself! If you have particularly bad sunburn, it's even better...stick it in the fridge for an hour or two and then put it on your frazzled skin....absolutely magnificient!

The only downside I can find is that if you don't rub it in properly (I tend to leave it on the skin to cool it down) then smurf-like blue skin does occur, and it can be a tad bitty but a quick rub and this is solved....an excellent product!
