How can i turn a sunburn into a tan?

Aloe: Some people don't really tan very well. However, if you want to protect your skin so it will potentially have a chance to tan consider aloe vera. It has anesthetic, anti-inflammatory & antibacterial / antifungal qualities. It decreases skin inflammation and helps to prevent infections. It also hydrates the skin.
