Try some Cortisone Cream

Sometimes the skin can get itchy with a chemical or herbal peel, much like the skin gets itchy after a sunburn.  It will subside.  Try some over the counter 1% hydrocortisone cream.  Some fresh aloe can be helpful as well.  If you don't have an aloe plant, then an aloe gel can work.  Lily of the Desert is a great brand.
