I remember on Bride Wars that Anne Hathaway's character used lemons to get rid of a bad tan. I don't know how valid of a source Bride Wars is, but it doesn't hurt to look into that!

Make a scrub with Lemon Juice and Salt (coarse salt works better). That has always helped me when I ventured into the self tanning area :)

Hope it helps!

Hey girls!!!

sooo i tried the salt and lemon juice and toner, and even a face scrub w/salicylic acid LOL

its looking SLIGHTLY better, still noticeable for me on the one hand....

funniest part is, i wondered how i got it on my hand, clearly from holding it against my body while sleeping....

but as i undressed for the shower, there was a huge HANDPRINT on my Right Leg on the inside of the calf!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How the heck does one manage to sleep with their LEFT hand on the bottom of their RIGHT leg???? i just cant even picture it!!!!!!!!!!!!

that came off though after the shower rinsed off the extra bronzer lol THANK GOODNESS!!!
