Removing Nicotine Stains From Your Fingers

Submitted by Joe

Being a cheapskate, I usually smoke my cigarette until I burn my fingers. This, of course, leads to terrible nicotine stains. I overcome this problem, by using steel wool, and Fast Orange gritty hand soap.

You could probably use Brillo, or SOS, too. You're probably thinking, 'That's gotta hurt,' but it doesn't in the least.

stained fingers Comments By: Harry yeah, steel wool/SOS works, but if you use it regularly, like 3-4 times/week, it's pretty hard on the skin, and you end up with callous on 1 or 2 fingers! There's got to be a better way....   Removing nicotine from fingers Comments By: Nishna Lemon juice does it and so does bleach...although I perfer the lemon juice and I do it twice weekly and viola no more *tattle tale stains* Good Luck   potato helps too Comments By: pebbles sliced potato does the same job. rub on, leave for 15 minutes, rinse off
