Sorry if TMI- itchy boobs

The top of my boobs itch like crazy and the skin is just flaky.  I tried putting lotion but it hasn't helped.  This has never happened before.  It's just around the top part and around the nipple- anyone else have this issue?

  • The only time my boobs have been flaky was when I was allergic to the material that my bra was made of, I switched bras, it went away.

  • mine have been like that...i have been putting mustela on them and it helps...but they still itch! the skin just looks better.

     

  • I've experienced that and use Palmer's coco butter lotion and it works. Good luck.
  • I have never felt itchiness..is that a word? like I have on my boobs for the past week! It is driving me crazy and no amount of moisturizer helps! I think it is the skin stretching out.
  • My whole body has been insanely itchy and my boobs have been the worst. I actually took benadryl one night because I couldn't stand it anymore. Lately I have used a humidifier in my room at night and it seems like the extra moisture has helped.

  • Mine have been super itchy too! My whole body seems itchy, but my legs and boobs are definetly the worst!
  • Mine were horribly itchy and flaky for a bit.  Lotion wasn't doing anything for me.  I started using a bath oil after my shower and that seems to have worked.  I actually do an at home business (a lot like Mary Kay but different products) and this is one of the things we sell.  I use it all the time on my legs and hadn't ever thought to try up top, but I love it.  If you want some let me know - I'd be happy to give you more info!

  • Oil. You need to put pregnancy oil or bath oil or massage oil on after every shower. I've been doing this religiously to my belly and breasts to prevent stretch marks and it also keeps the itching down. they have a great pregnancy oil on saffronrouge.com
