Every year in cities throughout Texas, locals gather to watch parades, eat, shop, play games and â most importantly â to view the brilliant new crops of wildflowers. The most common symbolism for the bluebonnet flower is, of course, pride in the state of Texas. Though these blossoms may be given to celebrate state-related events, they are also given as gifts for their simple, stunning beauty.
Avoid using harsh cleansers or exfoliates. Soap can be very drying to skin, and when you have a sunburn, you want your skin to stay as moisturized as possible to promote healing and prevent peeling. Keep the soap use to a minimum, being sure to avoid using it on particularly burned areas of your skin.
Exfoliate daily with a mild facial scrub. The exfoliant will lift dead skin cells, and over time it may fade the dark areas around your mouth. Dab a damp washcloth with a pea-sized amount of the facial scrub. Gently rub the washcloth on your face to remove pigmented skin cells and clean the skin.
