Buddha had slight sunburn on his upper arms and back. He did not want to bathe in the whole thing, so I made some up in a large bowl and using clean washcloths, I put them in the solution. I then squeezed out the towels slightly and placed one on the back of his neck and one for each upper arm. His relief was not instant, but after a about 10 minutes when I took the towels off, he said it felt cooler than the rest of him. The next day he said although his skin felt drier where the solution had been, he no longer felt the heat of the sunburn.
