I just went tanning and used a tingle tanning lotion. My skin feels really hot and tingly and I’m wondering if this is supposed to happen? It seems like it is slowly starting to fade. I also covered my skin in aloe vera just in case it is a burn. Anybody know anything about this stuff?

yeah it gets really hot and tingly and your skin gets realy red and hot. It goes away after about 30 mins.

yes, a tingle lotion leaves a red “rash” on your skin..it will go away within an hour. if you want something of the same affect..without the burning sensation..try a “body blush”..more people prefer that.

ok, first things first… there is no evidence of anyone getting skin cancer from a tanning bed just to clear that up.
tingle lotions will def make u red and some make u itchy. depends on the brand/strength on the nicotinate amt in there that determines how long u will feel the heat affect of it. do not shower it will make it worse.
designer skin and swedish beauty tend to have more of a heat affect than california tan.
if it is uncomfortable for u, just use something else is all.

Well, If you used a tingle lotion your all red because this lotion gives you a deeper tan by… bringing your blood/melena closer to the surface of your skin lol Your fine… It lasts an hour or so depending on your skin type. It may feel like a sunburn but its not… You may get burned the first few times you tan but you will always turn red when using this lotion :)

Make sure you wash your hands very good after applying tingle/hot lotion…
ONLY use a tingle / Hot lotion if you have a nice dark tan, Please do not use if you have light skin color or burn easy!!! its not worth the pain!!! :shock:
