When I did search I found that the rule of thumb is about 3 years if there is not expiration date.

Thanks. I was leaning toward getting a new tube, anyway. Why take the chance?

I've been using a 50-50 mix of water and white vinegar for sunburns. Works pretty good, takes the burn out and turns to a tan faster, or so it seems. This is an old wives tale though, so your results may vary. Aloe vera works good too.

I have never had a tan in my life. I'm lucky if I get get enough color just to take the deathly stark white look away. Hardly qualifies as a tan, though.

I hope to never have to answer this question. I am pretty religious about putting on sunscreen and/or wearing a hat. It'll be a new experience for me golfing during the summer as a SLY guy. I now love going without a hat, but 4-5 hours in direct sunshine (regardless of SPF), can take its toll. So, I will likely be wearing my bucket (Gilligan) style hats. I also bought a couple of "Panama" Style straw hats that provide coverage of the dome & ears. Very important to keep the ears shaded. My father in law got melanoma on both ears as a result of direct exposure over the years.
Oh, back to the original topic ......... Aloe Vera is awesome for post-burn relief.

You can use Bald Guyz Moisture Gel which was created so as not to be sticky and really sooth the sunburn. We use many herbal moisturizers that absord into the skin to help speed healing.
