Ok so i have been using brava for 8 weeks now and until recently i have had no problems at all with it. I had minor skin redness at first but then my skin quickly adjusted to it. But now all of the sudden when i wear my domes i feel like i've been over dosed on morphine, they are soooo itchy! Since i work in a small office of about 4 people i wear them to work everyday and in the last week they have been driving me crazy!! I dont know why or what i can do about it! I dont know if it has anything to do with the fact i have also recently started using bosom beauty along with brava, or what the problem is, but its getting to the point where i can not focus on work and almost dont even want to wear them anymore!! Has this happened to anyone else, does anyone have any suggestions?? HELP!!

When I first started Brava I really overdid it and was madly itchy after about a week, got to the point where I was itchy with them on and equally itchy with them off. As I'd only just started I left them off for a few days and restarted and it's been better since. I have a couple of raches and sore bits since and would advise you to wash your boobs with warm water and no soap, dry off then use your normal body lotion. Rub a little zinc based cream in around where the domes sit then put a lot of the dome prep or whatever you use over the top. Wear the domes for 11 hours only and only with a little more suction than is required to stop them falling off. When you take them off wash with warm water and baby shampoo then dry off and apply witch hazel to sooth the skin and a fair amount of zinc cream. Wear a non-wired bra over the top of a cotton vest or if you're at home go topless to get some air. This method has fixed me up in a couple of days even when I had the worlds ugliest rash (counted over 60 individual spots).
Hope it gets better x

p.s.
I also use BB with Brava and I don't think this has anything to do with the itching at all - I think it's either a reaction to the nasty sticky stuff they put on the Brava domes or it's just lack of air to the skin like nappy rash.

Last winter when I was doing a Brava session, I too became insanely itchy, both with and without the domes, to the point it became extremely painful! I tried numerous things, but found Eucerin - Aquaphor Healing Ointment worked really good! I tried probably 5 or more other products, but nothing worked as good as this.
