Sorry to hear about this. I use this product to wash my boyfriend's sheets/pillowcases and bath towels because he has sensitive skin. This doesn't break him out or cause him to itch.

Oh wow! No I haven't had any issues and I have sensitive skin. I would contact Gain customer service and tell them about it. Maybe they'll give you a refund or something.

Yes. My problem exactly. This lotion used to be great but they changed the formula a couple years ago and now I can't use it at all- causes terrible breakouts and a burning, red rash. You may be reacting to one of the chemical sunscreens in it (at least that's what my problem is) eg avobenzone or oxybenzone. Either way I'd advise returning it since it will only get worse if you continue using it.

Yes, it did for me after using for a few months. I'm sensitive and had to use coconut oil along with a very small amount of this or it gave me a rash. All was fine with my system until my armpits turned almost black (luckily that skin peeled off). Maybe my chemistry changed? Needless to say, I no longer use this product, but I did like it before this episode (I use coconut oil by itself now). I wouldn't have qualms recommending it to someone else to see if it works for them.

I didn't spray it on my clothes I just used it on my skin. I didn't know about the clothes thing and I was told that the mites can only live a few days without a host. I just washed my clothes in very hot water and dried it in the dryer in the hottest cycle. I used it until it was all gone. I have problems still but I found out that my issue was due to exposure to toxin in the Air Force in South Korea.

I still use my e cloths but they have a funny smell. I am planning on buying Norwex very soon. I thought at first they were pretty comparable but the more I use them, the bigger the difference I see.

I had a severe allergic reaction to this ointment...a nasty hive-like skin rash as well as a nose and throat irritation for several days after application.

This stuff makes me violently ill. I have tried to contact the company and was dismissed. It is the only cleaning product that has ever affected me like this. I start coughing, my throat swells, and starts producing a TON of mucus, and then I cough continuously until every particle is coughed up, and sometimes it makes vomit. Even from a distance, or outdoors, this happens, and most of the time I don't even smell it until I start to get ill. Considering the violence of the reaction, and that they won't even discuss it, I can't recommend using the product around humans or animals.

I tend to have real sensitive skin. Even most laundry detergents bother my skin, but this does not bother my skin at all. When something does give me a rash I use this and it clears it up right away.

I have used this product for over a year and have never developed a rash, nor has it dried out my skin. However, my dermatologist, who suggested this product, says that some people's skin reacts differently than the norm to any product. All I can say is try it as soon as you get it, and send it back if it reacts negatively to your skin. I think Amazon gives you 30 days to return an unsatisfactory item.

I had a reaction to the cream when I put it on my face and my neck. My skin got red and itchy. I normally don't have reactions to creams, so there is apparently something in this that my body is rejecting.

I put this on my neck and chest and broke out with a red, itchy rash that lasted about 12 days. The company reimbursed me and, believe it or not, gave me coupons for future buys. Try the Nivea firming gel. It really tightened up the stomach of a young friend of mine who had 4 children. It doesn't claim to help necks though.

I treated myself for over a month. I still itch. This started back (itching) when I was stationed in Korea. It happened every year but now it won't go away. I am going to try Dr Sebi blood purifier. I think it is something happening from the inside. It's been over a year and I still itch. I don't know what to tell you. If you find something that helps, please let me know.

I am not sure what is normal for you as to the number of times to go but have to say that as long as I was able to use it I went less often and it was effective. I am having to stop using it because it causes terrible itching at the application site and a very dark redness as well wherever I apply the patch. Wish I could still use it.

It's a little late for this reply, but I used this during pregnancy and it helped a lot with nausea. After a while it really bothered my legs and I had restless legs at the end of the pregnancy so I couldn't tolerate the itchy/stingy-ness. This was my third child and I wish I had known about it with my first two! - Amy

umm... stop using it? lol Seriously though I've never had that problem. You might just be allergic to it. So stop using it.

We have not experienced ripped jeans or any clothing in ours. We did however have a full sized comforter torn while trying to wash it in this machine. It was no fault of the machine, the comforter clearly stated front load machines only. It was far too large to be washed in this washer. After half a year or so with this machine we still love it.
