severe burn?? - tanTALK

haley09 · 07-02-2009, 06:21 PM

I just got back from my tanning salon. I went in a turbo bed for 13 min (not unusual for me to go for that long). After about 8-9 min i felt a burning sensation on my bottom, shoulders, and calves..pretty much anywhere that had direct contact with the bed. As soon as I got out of the bed I looked in the mirror and I was EXTREMELY red in those areas. I'm not going to lie..I'm a little freaked out right now because this has never happened to me before. Please help asap!!!

More than likely the culprit is a tingle lotion residue from a previous tanner. You need to let your salon know what happened. They need to do a better job getting the acylics clean. Anyway, it will go away after a couple of hours. Until then just chill out, it won't hurt you.

PHEW! Thank you so much for your response. Another question though, what are tingle lotions?

Niacin based lotions that cause a FLUSH. It'll go away in a few months.....ok hours.

Yes, I personally could never use the "tingle" lotions because they broke me out everytime and caused extreme burning and itching.....My hubby loved to use them though.

Take care!
