Lifebuoy hand wash = a fantastic fake tan remover...

I know that it sounds really odd. Why on earth would I be writing about a hand soap, of all things? One very simple reason, and that is because it gets rid of fake tan like nothing else. Honestly, it is amazing.

I love my Naked Tan Goddess Bronze, however unless you apply with gloves it leaves your hands green! A green base means that you get a lovely natural looking tan, however it also means that you turn your hands turn a delightful shade of green, followed by a very dark shade of brown. Obviously this is not ideal. Normal soap does not remove it, I have tried in vain, scrubbing my hands til they hurt.

Last time I applied my Goddess Bronze, I got annoyed and ended up going to the kitchen (who knows why) to wash my hands (where my Lifebuoy soap hides), and I was amazed when I saw that the foam turned green, and underneath it my hands became a normal colour again.

Seriously, it is worth having a pump bottle of this stuff SOMEWHERE in your household, for fake tanning emergencies.

  2. I use Lifebuoy too and it truly is a MUST in my house. It also cleanses my makeup sponge and face cloth like no other. I even use a little squirt of it mixed with other cleanser to deep cleanse/wash my brushes. Totally multipurpose and amazing hand wash! So happy Australia has them hehehe now if only they also bring in the Lifebuoy body wash and shampoo :)

  3. Ahhhhh, awesome Dana! I hadn't thought of using it as a brush cleanser, althought I don't know why I didn't because it makes sense haha. I would be intrigued to try the body wash and shampoo too.

    Emma, definitely get some. Or some gloves. Or wash your hands A LOT during application. It's a great tan, but it really stains your hands!

A penny for your thoughts? (not really, I am not that rich)
