Stop using the hemp lotion... I went tanning a while back and used the hemp moisturizing lotion and everytime I tanned afterwards OMG it itched like crazy everywhere. I stopped using the lotion and bought Jergens Anti-Itch lotion with the oatmeal stuff in it and it helped.

Hi,

You should take some oral antihistamine or antiallergic medications and see if they help decrease your symptoms. Apply calamine lotion at the sites of the lesions and keep the areas clean by washing it frequently.

Try to use mild soaps and avoid any other strong products. Use a medicated sunscreen when going out.

If your symptoms still persist, consult your physician for a detailed clinical evaluation.

Hope this helps.

Regards.
