Slow down. Just over tanning that's all. Problem is when you are starting from ZERO BASE TAN it can take about a month to get something going.

stomach and legs? no where else? do you have any other perfumes? lotions? did u shave your legs before you tanned? any medications? most get itchy, rashy first couples sessions, do as they said above, you should be fine.

you need to put some cream on it man, it really helps the itching, otherwise you will scratch your skin when you sleep. I use dermol cream, everytime i start to feel my skin itching after a tan.
