Rushing off to the bath now so will check back in 20 minutes but does anybody have a good way of getting rid of fake tan?

I was so tired when I did it that I forgot to rub it off my knuckles on my left hand when I was applying it - remembered my right. How do I , er..tone it down a bit?!

It is San Tropez. Do Boots do a fake tan removing product or am I imagining it and does it actually work?!

If I am sounding obsessive faking my tan when I am too tirec to think straight, in my defense it IS for a potential telly appearance. Wouldn't normally give this much of a flying wotsit!

Right, off to the bath with my SCRUB now....

Nail varnish remover does the job - I know from experience! Wink I have used on heels, side of hands etc. HTh Smile

Yep - Nail varnish remover is drying so slap on the moisturizer.

Toothpaste is good too apparently. My sister had a disaster just before her wedding where she had fake tan on the palms of her hands ... She was told to put toothpaste on it and after a couple of days it faded ...

Oh thank you everyone. SO far the body scrob and poor cleaner stuff have worked a teeny bit. On to lemon juice and nailpolish remover then!

Toothpaste if I have no joy there (trying this last as I have a strange phobia thing with mint flavours - can only just cope with it in my mouth - don't ask!)
