Question

Help answer this question below.

Does anyone know the reason for EXTREME itching after using a tanning bed? This has never happened before. I get itchy, but there is no rash, and it seems to be just the back and stomach, so that rules out an allergic reaction to the cleaner, and lotion.

    It could be that it;s being caused by the tanning itself. When I tan (or burn, really), i get extremely itchy. If you're not used to it, that may be what you're feeling. If so, it should go away in a day or two.

    I'm not sure, but I think its sun poisoning. I had the same thing happen to me at a tanning salon. I was fine for the rest of the day, and then that night I was an itchy mess. Hydro cortizone cream (with aloe) worked miracles for me. I went through a large tube in 1 day, but it did the trick, and after 24 hours I was all better. good luck!

    Does your tanning lotion contain Hemp?
    Your stomach is the first place to start itching and then your chest.
    I quit using Bronzing tanning lotion and lotions with Hemp in
    I use bronzers on my legs just keep it off top 1/2 of body.
