arghhhh funniest stupid this EVER this week.

on wednesday i got a spray tan for carols tonight cos im a soloist. neway, i didnt get sprayed by a person, i was in this room and it was like a machine/shower style thing. anyway, they told me if i whacked stax of this "barrier cream" in places i didnt want stax of spray going (ie hands, elbows, feet) then they would b fine, and any tan there would automatically wash off.

after the spray, i rubbed my leg a bit cus i didnt like how the spray had gone on it. anyway, long story short, now my hands are still TOTALLY orange, im gonna b on a big screen tonight singing and my hands holding the mike will be eww. someone suggested ajax, and i hav tried 2 diff types, and almost everything else under the sun on my hands, HOW DO I GET THIS ORANGE STUFF TO COMPLETELY VANISH??????!!!!!

go to DJs and buy st tropez fake tan remover. it takes a few washes with it, but eventually it will make it fade sufficiently.

best of luck tonight by the way, thats a fantastic opportunity for you.

Straight Chlorine bleach. If that doesn't work, add some ammonia-based cleaning products.

bi carb soda, ajax (2 kinds and plenty of it) nail polish remover all on my hands at once.

didnt do much at all cept give me a killer headache and now my hands r tingling.

i may jst stick with now slightly less orange hands (they jst look dirty now, not as bad as obviously fake tan covered s they were b4, and only my 1st 2 fingers on my left hand r orangey still now) becos otherwise the rate im goin my head will b too dizzy to sing, an di probably wont hav hands left.

that saying, my mum is bringing me home more nail polish remover (this time with ascetone) so we will see. i may ruin my hands more yet.

ahhh.

a friend had a dilemma with fake tan once... i think she used an oil-based cleanser ...many times and it eventually worked.

i have 2 options cos nothin is gonna get it off and i really need to start getting ready soon
1. cut my hands off (but i dont know how i would then hold the mike...)
2. paint them with foundation, but i find that gross. hahaha

any suggestions for number 3? gloves will make it even more noticeable, mayb i should make a joke bout it before launching into a rousing rendition of jingle bells.

haha or jst pretend thats my normal skin colour

Apply a liberal amount of turps, then scrub with steel wool. Gently dry hand with a soft towel, then soak in vinegar for ten minutes.
and then set urself on fire for 3 minutes. it burns the dead skin cells i swear!!!
