1. Use aloe vera because of it has a healing power. You can use a prepackaged lotion or apply directly from a plant if you have one available. The oil from the plant will make your skin feel better and decrease the flaking and peeling.
2. Drink aspirin for it can really stop a sunburn in its tracks if taken earlier. It also help reduce the swelling and redness of the skin and alleviate the pain felt. For best result, it should be taken very few hours on the first day of the sunburn.
3. Use an apple cidar vinegar bath and moisten your sunburnt skin with it. This is considered one of the most effective way to prevent peeling. You can purchase one at a local health store. Mix this with your bath and just lie back relax and let the healing process begin. The vinegar will help restore the healthy ph balance of your skin which is very important in healing process.
4. Keep away from the sun until you are fully healed to avoid any serious and increase risk of skin cancer. Wait until the sunburn is fully healed before exposing yourself into the sun again.

@buttonpusher recommends taking a shower to open up the pores before applying the gel. answers/health/what-is-the-best-way-to-treat-a-sunburn
You can use fresh aloe vera if you have a plant. Just break the leaf and apply the "fresh goo" topically.
@jjwalsh advises against oral ingestion as there may be adverse effects.

Also, if you're itching or your skin really hurts, you can use hydrocortisone cream. That will help reduce peeling, since you're not scratching at yourself all day.

The stuff is amazing and has a multitude of benefical uses.
Emu oil surpasses other forms of sunburn relief because of its natural ability to penetrate the human skin with moisture more deeply and effectively than other sunburn salves, relieving the tightness and burning--and it's completely natural.
Emu oil naturally contains Vitamin E, which is a major antioxidant and healing agent; Vitamin A, a known skin repairer and antioxidant.
The natural bacteriostatic, anti-inflammatory and cell regeneration properties of emu oil help repair minor wounds quickly and with less scarring.
Make sure to use Pure certified Emu oil, theres alot of inferior Emu oil on the market.
This is a great reference guide to the benefits of Emu oil,

Its worth looking into for many other reasons besides your sunburn.
