How to get tanning drops out of hands

5 replies

I used tanning drops on my face and I forgot to mix with moisturiser. My face isn't too bad. My hands are destroyed with tanning drops.

I googled how to get it out of skin. I tried an exfloliating scrub. Baby oil, shaving cream, soap, nail polish remover. Nothing is working.

Does anyone know how to get tanning drops out of skin and thanks.

Have you got any exfoliator with glycolic acid in? Or failing that some washing up liquid as hand wash! On the plus side you wash your hands loads so when I’ve done this in the past it’s faded quickly

Stick your hands in a bowl of diluted Milton. Then use the Fairy liquid.

Doesn't lemon juice work? I feel like there's a scene in the wedding planner where she says a quarter cup of lemon quarter cup of salt?? And scrub scrub scrub

If it can wait until you can get to the shops you can get tan eraser mitts. They've always worked well for me (albeit never used it on my hands).

Thank you for the replies.

I used washing up liquid but that didn't work.
I tried lemon juice and that didn't work either unfortunately.

I will try some rubbing alcohol now.
