How to Remove Excess Sunless Tanner

Did you go a bit overboard when applying sunless tanner? Or did your trip to the tanning salon turn out to be a disaster? Luckily, there are several home remedies that can remove excess sunless tanner in a day or two. Take comfort knowing that your sunless tanner disaster is only a few household products away from being history, and you'll soon be able to step out of the house without being mistaken for a giant orange.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Exfoliating body scrub Loofah Baking soda Washcloth Lemon juice

1. Apply a dollop of exfoliating scrub onto a loofah.

2. Massage all over your body with the loofah. Be particularly aggressive on areas that tend to be darker, such as the knees and elbows. A few exfoliations should remove the tanner completely.

3. Dampen the washcloth and sprinkle some baking soda onto it.

4. Massage the baking soda all over your body with the washcloth. The baking soda will grab onto particles of sunless tanner and thereby remove it.

5. Soak the washcloth into some lemon juice. Scrub the sunless tanner off your skin with juice-soaked cloth. The acid in the lemon will lighten the orange color and remove the tanner.

Tips & Warnings

• Wait it out. Most sunless tanners fade away within a few days.
• Don't rub your skin too harshly as it may cause redness and irritation.
