Sienna x Gradual Tan

[Rhiannon1408]

Hi geeks,

Having a bit of a disaster. I, for some reason turned down a tan swap with my friend in favour of using the Sienna gradual tan. Well I'm paying the price this morning as I have tan all over my palms and in between my fingers! I did wipe over my hands with a baby wipe after I had finished applying but I guess as its one of those moisturiser types it had already sunk in.

Anyway, anything you can suggest that'll get it off my hands? I've used a tan exfoliator and even a nail file to try and buff it off but it didn't work

Help!!

Even when it says on the package "wash hands thoroughly after use" (implying you can apply with bare hands) i always wear gloves!! Even wash off tan is a nightmare to get off your palms lol
You could try tan removal wipes, I've also heard nail varnish remover works a bit?? Not tried it though!
Il be interested to see what people say as I've got patchy hands and feet at the mo lol

I don't know why I didn't do the tan swap with my friend?! I sprayed her then said no to her spraying me! Stupid stupid stupid!

I'll try the nail varnish remover thank you. I've got a new client this morning I really hope she doesn't notice!

Isn't lemon juice supposed to break down tan as well?? May have just made that up :-\
Don't worry Im sure your client won't notice

I make a wee scrub for my friend and it works for her...2 parts white granulated sugar, 1 part honey and a good splash of lemon juice. Wet hands then (lightly) rub hands with the mixture for a minute, pat dry and follow with a good hand cream or oil

Whitening toothpaste usually gets it off my hands and any patchy bits. But I have heard lemon juice gets it off too. x

Thanks guys, just got back from my clients house I don't think she noticed. Will be trying these out now so I'll let you know what works.

try a buff wipe which is very effective or alternatively put a small amount of baby lotion on your palms and rub your hands together

Again alternatively nip out and get a tin of pineapple slices and using the slices mush them between your palms as this acts as a good means of ex foliation and breaks down the tan also

Alternatively ...wear a pair of gloves till its faded away :lol::hug:

Just soaked my hands and feet in a bowl of warm water with salt and lemon juice and used exfoliating mitt.....definitely helped! Found it on Google lol
