Aloe vera isn't the only possible treatment for a sunburn. A lidocane spray can help it to hurt less until it heals and you can buy that from a drugstore. It could also help to bathe in green tea or to use noxema facial cleanser. It helps to reduce the stinging sensation from a sunburn.

Unfortunately, the best treatment is time. Try taking some Advil and placing a damp, cold towel over your burned areas to relieve the pain. Don't put any lotions on the burn until at least 24 hours, otherwise, you will lock in the heat and increase the damage. As it starts to heal, never pick at or "peel" a sunburn.
