Hi guys. I asked this question about 4 hours ago, but I really, really need help cuz none of those answers work, and nobody else is answering.

So I acccidently sprayed L'oreal Sublime Bronze all over my body by accident ( thought it was this moisturizing air-brush spray). And now I have orange splorches all over me.

I've soaked in the tub, and tried rubbing on a lemon. But the lemon only faded the splotches slightly, same goes for the bathing.

I really wanna try scrubbing with baking soda, but I don't hav any. I only hav baking powder... so will that work?

Seriously need help, and I really appreciate everyone that answers!

And I live in Singapore... so I can't buy those tan removers.

Thanks so much!
I looked around my house for bleach, but all I found was an empty bottle of clorox by the dryer.... arrgh...... the bleach just happens to run out on the day that I need it most.

Oh, and the horrible accident happened bout 2 days ago. It's been fading a little bit each passing day, but you can still clearly see it.

hey im sorry about that. i got this off a website and i've never had a spray tan but i hope this helps

Removing spray tan.

Too much of a good thing? Hands, feet elbows and knees seem to take on more spray tanning solution than the rest of the body, because they have more dry skin on them. It is important to exfoliate those places extra carefully before you have your spray tan. Personally, I do not worry too much about the knees, because I figure that when I used to tan in the sun, my knees were always darker than the rest of my body, so I think that having knees spray tanned darker just makes it look more natural.

What to use to take the stains off after spray tan.


Sometimes, no matter what you do, you still get darker stains. (Ever since I started using spray tanning solution without the bronzer in my spray tanning booth, I don’t seem to have that problem any more). The way to deal with them is to rub them off with exfoliant. If you use exfoliant on top of exfoliating glove, it seems to do a great job of removing spray tan.If you have done this, and not all has come off, a little bit of lemon juice, liquid bleach or hydrogen peroxide will do the trick.

Removing spray tan altogether. If you had a really dark spray on tan, at the end of its life it might be getting quite patchy, and if it is beyond the stage that can be touched up, you might want to take it off.

Easiest way of removing spray tan is to moisturize your body with baby oil, leave it on for couple of hours, and then have a hot bath, grab one of those exfoliating gloves (or loofah), pour some exfoliating gel onto it and scrub everything off. All gone. Back tomorrow to the spray tan salon for another tan!

I found that the best exfoliant for removing spray tan is the same one that you use before spray tan (specially formulated for spray tanning industry).

Wow, I did not know that I can write so much about a process that takes 1-2 minutes a day. So, don't feel overwhelmed. Taking care of, extending, and removing spray tan is really easy, and in no time you will be doing it without even thinking.

And if you don't want to go through problems of removing spray tan stains, just find a salon that uses solution with very little bronzer, or none at all. Stains then become almost non existent.

i've never heard the baking soda thing...
but then again i dont use self tanner either.
i would try it.
its worth a shot...
unless its on your face.
then dont use it.
sorry.

use vinegar it will help

baking soda id in baking powder so that might work. wear pants and long sleves. and i wouldnt use bleach.

baking powder and baking soda are 2 way different things, um lemon juice does work, but for little spots like in the creases of your fingers and stuff. i know one thing that will definatly get it off but i am not recommending it. bleach. if you do this, dilute it with water and soap. and if you die its not my fault.
