As far as I know you can't. The skin has been burnt and the body needs time to recover from it. All I can suggest is that you apply moisturiser or after sun lotion and hope you don't peel too much.

Wink Re: How do I get rid of a sunburn..fast?
Vinegar stinks, but it takes the sting out of your sun burn. Also shaving lotion is good.
Double up on Viamin C and your liquids and it wouldn't hurt to take some Vitamin E for the skin as well.
You need to get fluids back in to moisturize the skin - possibly keeping you from peeling or blistering.
You will probably be down with your sundburn for a few days at least.
