    I don't know if it is supposed to go there, but it didn't seem to be serious enought to go in the health and well being section.
    I have messed up with my tanning lotion (yes my tan is pure fake, I don't tan, I become red instead). Usualy I do things right, but apparently I have accidentaly put some in the inner part of my harms and now I have blobs there. Is there a way to remove it (except waiting for a week) ?
    Thanks, Eleanor

    i heard that scrubbing works...exfoliation

    salt+lemon might do the job too (it doesn't sting either) (its a cheap version of an exfoliation that works; also lightens skin discolorations)

    10 points for not tanning and getting horrible UV ray exposure and possible skin cancer. Idk how to get rid of fake tanner splotches. I just stay pale and pretend that it actually works, even tho I look ghostly white. At least i don'tahve skin cancer.

    Rub some straight lemon juice onto it, scrub it around a bit then leave it overnight (Might get a bit sticky).

    Rinse and scrub in the morning.

    *EDIT*

    On another note; for anyone wishing to make their skin more pale, to even out a tan/mistake or to prevent skin going freckly next time you get burnt, the lemon juice treatment works just fine.

    Lemon juice is a miracle substance when it comes to skin color.

    Put lemon juice (even more effective when combined with milk) on your skin then go and tan, it will enhance the tan and lighten the tone of any body hair!

    Put on lemon juice and avoid sunlight and it will make you more fair!

    No, that's not that bad :lol: I'm using a taning lotion for fair skins. I think I am the only one who noticed that I have messed up, thankfully (my husband is not very fond of my tanning lotion).
    Thanks for the answers, I'm gonna buy some lemon and try it.

    That works really well for DIY highlighting.
