Hey, there...concerning your sunburn...when you burn like that, best thing to do is wear all the sunscreen you can, but also cover up the parts of you that are burning up....if you have like a linen, breathable long sleeve, that should really help. And, 50 SPF! You are probably back already, but this whatt I do & I have very fair skin.

[@PoisonedApathy]

That look like a great vacation! Pro-tip from a mediterranean: next time increase little by little exposure to the sun to get your skin slowly used to it, also apart from sunscreen, always pack aftersun cream to help restore hidration after sun exposure. I always feel so much for northern tourists here in Spain when I see them all red, it's so painful! Hope it wasn't too bad.

[@mycomplicatedlife2488]

Same with Caribbean! That was intense when I went on my first cruise recently!

[@alexiseldredge]

that’s a good tip! I literally went from 0 to 100 hahah

[@Celinelikedion]

this trip looked amazing! loved watching this, the colour grading is beautifully done ❤

[@alexiseldredge]

thank you!

[@brendacampbell7537]

I'm so glad that you were able to go on this vacation. I think this is just what you needed, with the crappy year that you had in the beginning. A nice reset for you. Keep doing your thing and great vlogs by the way. 😊

[@alexiseldredge]

[@becaboo-dv8dp]

I hate to say it, but the sunscreen you were wearing on your body probably wasn’t very good if you’re getting that burnt with multiple reapplications 😞 Probably time to find a new one. Looks like you were able to have fun despite the burn though! Great vlog ❤️

[@dariaju8165]

[@BethMJones]

Gorgeous! How fun! Thanks for sharing. ❤ What beautiful sunset & cloud pics! So glad you got to go with Kimmie & her family & had such a good time. The beach is my place of peace & happiness--don’t get there often, but love it! 🌴🌊

[@lynnhurst7365]

Wow what a beautiful place to vacation. ❤ Kimmie is such a great friend

[@alexiseldredge]

she is!

[@5464916]

Love the vlog! But girly please take care of your skin. You’re so beautiful inside and out, take care of your largest organ and be healthy. If sun protection is not enough, sun protective clothing is there for you. Doesn’t have to be upf, regular close can provide adequate sun protection. If you got a burn - you’ve got to cover that area for a few days and make sure that burned area is not exposed to sun at all until it heals. Much love!

[@alexiseldredge]

I know! haven’t been in the sun since hahah

[@suelyons531]

Oh I love both your dresses for the fancy dinner. You guys looked awesome. Great video. Glad you got away and had fun despite the sunburn!

[@alexiseldredge]

thank you!

[@jamiechoi13]

[@TravelShortVidz]

Hiii, where did you stay? I'm having a hard time picking a place in Antigua to stay, it's so expensive .

[@karin9373]

[@alexiseldredge]

[@tahnpark1267]

Kim is so beautiful! That yellow top looked great btw! Hope the sunburn has died down to a nice tan. ❤

[@alexiseldredge]

thanks!

[@Ann-cx3dd]

Also, aloe vera gel is your best friend w a painful burn like that.

[@alexiseldredge]

always!

[@Rick-ov5jm]

is that in Jamaica???

[@alexiseldredge]

it is its own country!

[@mycomplicatedlife2488]

Alexis, you looked amazing in that green dress!

[@laurarendle]

Love your voice!!

[@alexiseldredge]

thanks!

[@pricilla2076]

I can't believe this is how some people live..so far from my reality.

[@alexiseldredge]

definitely just a highlight reel, but I’m very grateful for the opportunity I had to go

[@richardottley4611]

OMG lol 🤣🤣 I literally said "this is the life" the same time you said it.. and this is my 1st watch.. I guess we kinda think a like 😂 6:14

[@laurah.7663]

Beautiful photography, I agree looks so hard to leave and go back to real life...thank you for sharing your vacation. A comment on irritation around your mouth. Research perioral dermatitis. Maybe visit your dermatologist and ask for a diagnosis.

[@alexiseldredge]

I have been looking into this and working with a dermatologist to see if that’s it!

[@RizkyAshary]

Beautiful

[@richardottley4611]

😅 it's always great to get yourself situated first.. self care is wealth.. I'm I right or I'm I right?? 😅

[@janeybakarbessy2330]

If you don't wanna get sunburned again; you should try and go for a month to a tanning bed if you do that you won't get that burned look. And just apply sun screen and you will be not red. Just a suggestion for your next beach/island trip.

[@richardottley4611]

ahhh man.. I wish Bennett, could have went with you to Antigua 😸😿

[@stanjackson007]

Chelloooo there again 👋🏽 .... Alexis & Kim 👩🏼👩🏼.... Singing on Vacation Ah 🎼🎶🎹🎸🎙🎤💃🏽💃🏽..... Very Nice .... Well , I 🙎🏽‍♂am impressed .... Yesssss 👍🏽..... would really like for you to come to My Upcoming Show 📺 soon ..... Very Nice Vlog indeed ..... From S J 🙎🏽‍♂= D M V Productions 📺🖥💻🖱💽🎥📸📹🏕❗💯 ... PEACEEEE 🌍🙏🏽💪🏽✌🏽❗💯

[@hsoderberg6505]

I would blame your sunscreen. Stop using that brand & try some others. Meanwhile, they make aloe vera formulations specifically for burns - no doubt you've seen them. Ability to tan is based on how much melatin you have in your skin - from another very white girl.

[@johnnyc5382.]

Alexis E The World's Cutest Human Being ! ! !

[@jasonroberts1984]

You are an attractive woman and you have a great singing voice.
