Does anyone know, or has anyone ever experienced an ' allergic reaction ' to any bronzers? I am curious because I have been using make~up for years, since my teens, and now I am in my 30's, and have never had any problems at all with any make up whatsoever. Recently, however~ I bought some really good bronzer from 'MAC'. And that is a good brand. It SEEMS ,I am not positive, but it seems like since I have been using it....I started "itching" really bad! I only put it on my face of course, it is for face only~ but I was thinking, like if you brush some on by, or around the nose, could it possibly be like you are breathing it in....and if it is something I am allergic to , or sensitve, be causing my skin to "itch" intensely all over my body, and especially at night while trying to sleep. Sounds kind of weird, but anyone else ever have this?

Check to see if it contains bismuth oxychloride - that is a known irritant that can cause itching in some people. It is used in some cosmetics - but you may not have encountered it before - or it may be something totally different causing your itching.
