Poisoned myself with spray tan????!!!!

I feel like an idiot for even needing to type this but I had a spray tan 2 hours ago (first one ever) and now feel dizzy, faint and sick.

Is it a coincedence or it is a reaction to breathing in too much spray (I did wear a mask but it was flimsy)?

Any experience welcome please.

Goodness! Do they have a poison control number in the UK that you can call?

incognitodontyouknow · 19/08/2006 12:16

I feel like such a prat!!!

Just wanted someone to say it was normal!!!!

Might phone NHS direct I think!

But soooo for being vain.

Don't feel bad! It's much better than roasting oneself outdoors or in a tanning bed

So I thought.....maybe not now!!!!!

I'm sure it will be fine. But maybe just read off the ingredients and tell them your symptoms just to be on the safe side. Are you home alone?

I am!
Wanted to look tanned and naturally healthy for when DH came home - now I'll looked green and decidily peaky!

Will have some lunch and see if that helps.

Glad to hear you're well and kicking I'll keep this in mind if I try spray tan myself. I have looked at the kits several times and it sounds like a great idea - at least in theory
