Shilpa Arora ND, a renowned Health Practitioner, Nutritionist and certified Macrobiotic Health Coach, doesn't recommend using apple cider vinegar to treat sunburn. She notes, "Tanned or sunburned skin is sensitive, using apple cider vinegar may further burn the skin. Don't use it directly on the affected area. The hydrochloric acid is too sharp to be applied directly on skin. Dilute it with water in order to use for tanning; not recommended for sunburn at all".
