2. The old grandma tip is to use fresh Aloe Vera gel which has healing properties on the exposed skin. If you have a plant takes a stem and remove the gel and store it in the fridge. This can be applied to the face, neck and hands periodically.
3. Vinegar either plain regular or apple cider vinegar is known to prevent unsightly blisters and peeling. Keep it in spray bottle and spray it as and when.
