I was surprised to learn that sunburn treatment is as close as your fridge and it isn't butter which at one time was recommended for burns but has been debunked and found to actually worsen burns. The surprising part is the mystery treatment is milk which though directly related to butter lacks the fat content. Vitamins A and D,as well as amino acids,lactic acid,protein and casein found in milk combine to make both a soothing and healing sunburn treatment. There is no need to bath in milk it can be applied by soaking a cloth in a bowl of cold milk,then placing it on the burned area to work its magic. Another possible bonus would be becoming attractive to cats...or not depending on their mood.
