**A. **Sun tan is not permanent; both natural and artificial tans will fade off eventually and your skin will regain its natural colour. The process is slow and can be accelerated by using natural remedies at home or by visiting a dermatologist for treatments.

**A. **Sunburns can be mild or moderate. A mild sunburn takes about 3-5 days to heal. The redness and sensitivity should calm down within 5 days and there will be some peeling as the skin heals. Moderate sunburns take longer, maybe up to a week to heal and sometimes you may also have to visit a dermatologist.

**A. **Avoid stepping out in the sun without protection, wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen and carry an umbrella to protect your skin. Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours for maximum protection. Use DIY masks and scrubs regularly to get rid of suntans at home.
