Ok, you are going to think I have totally lost it! After making the FD cake I can't get the red, now pink off my hands!!! My hubby washed the bags that the red was in & he can't get it off his hands either!!! What a pair we are!!! 
I used the Wilton red & no taste red both bottles!!! Because there so hard to get red. The cake supply store was out of red from Americolor & the other ones that mOuse told me about. We have washed & washed our hands & even filled the sink like we were going to wash dishes & scrubbed & scrubbed!! It didn't work!!!! It is turning pink so I guess it will wear off. Boy, my hubby is going to be picked on when he goes to work tomorrow!!
SO HOW DO I GET THE RED OFF MY HANDS???? Thank you!!
Hey Lisa! I got the pic you sent me on!!! Thank you it is soooooo cute!!! OH>>>> yes, I'm still online! My hubby is going to get me for sure!
Hmm. I have never really had any of the colors stain my hands. I have found that for me, baby wipes help to take the color out of my hands.
Try polish remover..P.S. hope you don't have small cuts.. OUCH!! Good Luck pinky 
Baby wipes work awesome for taking out color.
When I used to dye my hair red I would use baby wipes for cleaning up. It was really nice to use on my counters because if you spilled- wipe it up with a baby wipe and you could never tell I spilled red hair dye on a light colored counter
I don't color my hair anymore, back to dark brown for me, but I still like using baby wipes for a lot of stuff.
I wear non-powdered latex gloves when working with dye. The few times I've had it on my hands it has worn off by the next day.
Mine too... but I dont have a real life outside the home so it doesnt matter if my hands are stained or not
You can usually get a big box of them from walmart or a medical supply place for really cheap.
They're great for a lot of things, cleaning the bathroom, cleaning the kitty litter box, making hamburger patties, mixing up meatloaf (with your hands which is the fun way even if the meat's a little cold ), helping your husband work on the car.... like I said all kinds of stuff.
I've heard of using toothpaste, especially the whitening kind (the pumice in it is supposed to help). Also, someone told me they use a special soap that artists use to clean their hands. I'm not sure of the brand, but they should sell it at ACMoore or Michaels.
Well I'll be a monkies uncle!! 
I'm a volunteer Firelady, LOL... I have medical gloves in my van for when we go on EMS calls!!!!!!!!!!! Gosh, I think this cake decorating has fried my brain!!!!!!!!! 
Thanks folks for the good advice!!
Oh,,, toothpaste also works for fire ant bites! You get bit by a fire ant & you put the toothpast on immediately & it will not swell or itch at all! For any of you that don't know what a fire ant is... it's a big, ugly, red ant that stings the FIRE out of you!! Seen mostly in the deep south!! That's why we call them fire ants!
