I just went to the beach and got back a while ago. Now my skin is peeling on my arms and shoulders. Its leaving little patches that are lighter than my skin. Does anyone know how to get rid of this?

Try a salt scrub to get rid of the dead skin

Aloe vera the crap out of it. you have a pretty bad sunburn just use aloe vera on it like all through the day whenever you feel your skin get dry or tight it may not completely stop but it should help.

That looks like vitiligo. Does that happen all the time when your in the sun?

I think it will fade since its happened before, Im guessing. I would get it checked out by a dermatologist just to rule out anything.

It just happened to me.. do not peel it off.. don't.. it will leave scars.
I left it for a couple of days.. it looked so ugly I know but I kept wearing long sleeved shirts in the middle of the summer..
and then steam bath and scrubbed it.. all the dead skin went off and my arms are back normal now..
but don't peel off the second picture it looks red and like you scratched it out.. careful with that cause it might scar! hope I helped.

It's a sunburn, it's from your sunburn it's peeling. Just leaving it will be fine. I asked my aunt, and shes a doctor. So yeah. Hope it helps.
