2. Attend to any burns.

Burns can be painful and distressing, but potatoes offer a natural remedy to soothe and heal. This method works particularly well for sunburns, though it can be adapted for other mild burns. Begin by washing a few potatoes thoroughly. Slice them thinly, or for a more intensive treatment, grate or blend them into a juicy paste. Apply the slices or paste to the affected area, securing them with gauze or cotton pads. Leave them on for 10–15 minutes, then rinse your skin with cool water. In cases of burns caused by boiling water, raw potato mash offers a gentler and more effective option. Carefully apply the mash to the burn and let it sit until the pain subsides. Replace the mash when it turns brown. Acting quickly can significantly improve the results.
