I'm so mad at myself! I had been good about keeping my hands clean of dye until this morning. I was in a rush to load the dishwasher and wasn't thinking. Now I have red dye all over my hands
Normally it doesn't bother me and it goes away after a few days. But I have a business mixer tonight and will be shaking a lot of hands!!!!
Any help would be appreciated!!

I like to use hand sanitizer it will get alot of the die off. Then if you have to resort to a little bleach that will take the rest off, but it plays havoc with your skin.

A little clorox bleach on a cotton ball always does the trick for me. Just remember to mousturize really well after.

Nail polish remover will take it right off.

Rubbing alcohol.

I had red hands for a whole week once..if only I knew what I know now

thanks guys

I just use straight bleach and wash my hands immediately after.

Clorox, rubbing alcohol, or nail polish remover...I was using my husband's shop soap with that awful gritty feel to it. It takes a lot off...but it would not cut the red dye...Thanks guys!

John Freda's Frizz Ease shampoo does it every time, all I have to do is wash my hair and the food colour is gone!

I'm not sure if that is good or bad, what is in the stuff?

1) spray them w/Windex Yes, I said Windex Actually it's the amonia in it that takes the color off but in Windex it is diluted and smell is masked so you can stand it.
2) the 1st liquid that touches your hands must be as HOT as you can possibly stand.

No more color

I use bleach and water and soak them for a few minutes. If they are really stained with red it may take straight bleach. After that I use liquid soap or even dawn deteregent. And yes, don't forget to use lotion afterwards. Of course it would have had to be red. Good luck!

Go shampoo your hair.

The shampoo is a soap and your hair is abrasive, thus scrubs off the color.

Works for me!

I use a great homemade soap that my friend makes, that has coffee grounds in it, I think you could put some coffee grounds and some dishwasher liquid might do it. You may also want to try oxyclean powder if you have it, it is great with food based dyes. Good luck!

I use an exfoliating face wash - St Ives Apricot Scrub works every time, and my hands are nice and soft after!

I've had lots of luck with Dawn dish soap.

Good luck!

Scrubbing bubbles. Last year after I decorated Elmo my hands---front & back up to my wrists---were totally red! My cuticles were the worst. I sprayed them, waited for a couple of minutes, then went over them w/ a nail brush. You could never tell I had red hands! Always my go to now!
