Never heard of that. Does that really work?

Of course .. it’s what the Greeks do and they get far more sunshine / sunburn than we do

We still use this method to this day

Putting tomatoes in slice on a burn after first rinsing it with cool water can also be good in the healing process. Tomatoes have naturally occurring lycopene, which helps to alleviate the pain of burns, decreases inflammation, stops blistering, and speeds up the healing process.
