has anyone found a way to reliably get rid of the residue the patches leave behind that get covered with what I assume is fibres from knickers? I’m living with several grey squares outlined on my butt!! I tried olive oil with a cotton wool pad and nada…

Baby oil works a treat.

I soak in bath and then scrub them off with a pumice stone.

Baby oil straight onto skin, not onto cotton wool and then loofah mit or roughish flannel xx

A large of baby oil on a cotton pad, hold down on your squares for 20/25 seconds and just wipe away , nothing I've tried works as good as this

Briansgirls · 09/03/2026 22:30

Am I the only one who likes scratching it off?

I honestly thought oil is oil so tried the kitchen olive oil! Is baby oil special? I will try it!

Medical adhesive removal spray - it’s designed to remove adhesive from skin

Absolutely baby oil on a cotton pad, it’s magic.

Baby oil here too. Dab it on. Give it a couple of minutes and wipe off. The only thing that works

GarlicFound · 10/03/2026 00:46

I use alcohol.

Baby oil on a cotton pad ( not Frylight).
Or Zoff wipes from Amazon.
