Quick removal of fake tan on face - help!!!

7 replies

I don't usually use fake tan but for some bizarre reason I decided to try to liven my face up yesterday with Garnier face mist.

Oh bloody hell. It's awful. Any tips on removing it quickly please?

I've cleansed multiple times, rubbed with a face cloth and tried glycolic pads but it's not budging!

Surely someone on here has experienced this too? How can I get this stinky orange stuff off?

Go to a big Asda or Tesco and get fake tan remover.

Thank you @MindfulAndDemure, I'll go now

I didn't know such a thing existed but it worked so thank you @MindfulAndDemure. Horrible smell and my face is still stinging but it's no longer orange.

I have visions of you looking like a Ommpa Loompa! Not a great look!

Lemon juice on a cotton pad works well!

So glad you managed to get some and strip the orange back! Ive had to use remover many times on knees / elbows / hands, its a godsend.
