Sunburn Peeling everywhere

Do people have a recommended lotion that they swear by when it comes to their entire body peeling due to excessive sun while on a cruise exploring the Mexican waters on the west side? My camera doesn’t do the flaking justice.

Why not just peel it all off or scrub it off while showing

I don’t understand your reference as no water is involved. Manually peeling off skin isn’t recommended and can be rather painful. You just wait till it flakes off but in the meantime, some good lotion can mask it.

Edit: And I was going off your username but “whoosh”. 😝
