Teabags for sunburn .... yes.. Just moisten new teabags, (I like the family size and always keep a saucer close by with some water in it) keep dabbing on the sunburned area and make sure the 'juice' is plenty dark as you apply. Let dry and reapply every hour or so. It seems to take the heat/pain out of the sunburn and helps it turn a beautiful tan color. I used this on my daughter for years & years. It worked great. There might be a spot or two more sunburned than the rest that might remain a little painful but, all in all, it was an inexpensive, effective remedy. Lola
