I'm 19 years old. my lips are dark and sunburned. what should i do?

Keep lubricates with: a mild ointment like Vaseline. Cool compresses will help pain and swelling and oral ibuprofen or acetaminophen may help the discomfort. Avoid further sun exposure or lipstick until healed. Some of the new lip products have sunscreen benefit, which is a good idea for the future.
