How to get rid of orange stains from fake tan?

I recently used a slow fake tan. One that takes a while to build up. But one time i forgot to wash my hands and they are abit orange. I also accidently put some on the bottom of my feet, as it is a moisturising fake tan (Holiday Skin Body Moisturiser). I was just wondering if someone could possibly tell me how to get rid of the orangeness. Many thanks.

How to get rid of orange stains from fake tan?
Hi there,





They actually make products designed specifically for removing the orange. The best one that I know of is St. Tropez Self-Tan Remover. It's not too expensive and probably a good thing to have on hand if you do sunless tanning - you never know when you might need it! I think that I've also seen knock-offs of it in drug stores, so you can find something that says "self-tan remover" and that should do the trick.





I'd be careful with putting acetone or any other harsh chemical on your hands. Those are designed for nails - not skin, and can potentially harm or dry out your hands.
Reply:cut a lemon in half and rub it on the spot..
Reply:Go to a pharmacy, where the sell it like walgreens* and they should have a remedy there.
Reply:put some peeling on ur hands and rub it in well and u can use little brush also...i once used lemon juice and i worked very well too...but i'd recommend that peeling...(best for this would be with crushed apricot stone)
Reply:if it really is bothering you alot, i would go to a store like walmart, and buy a 100% pure acetone nail polish remover. apply it with a cotton ball to the areas on your hand that are orange. it shoudl work, it's worked in the past for me.





if that doesn't work, i would try noxema pads, that you wipe your face with.





good luck! :]
Reply:You can use a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser, but the company doesn't recommend it. It works, though.
Reply:You can either stop useing it or get out in the sun to try and even it out
