: : How do you guys get this stuff off??
: Opinions vary hugely on the whole NewSkin topic. I find the spray
: too difficult to remove, which is why I use the liquid version.
Some
: say that the spray comes off with the latex if you cover in that
too
: (wait for the spray to dry, then dab on liquid latex - I find the
: very watery stuff works best).
: You can always try what the spray says - spray on some more and
rub,
: but I reckon it costs too much to use this way. Otherwise, one
friend
: suggests that showering before removal can soften the whole multi-
: layer package (latex, NewSkin, henna), making it easier to remove.
: Yes, that's right - you can shower safely if you use latex over the
: NewSkin. I even once opted for putting latex back over the design
: just after henna removal. Seemed to work just fine.
: So, get the liquid version and see if you like that better. Only
: catch is it takes much longer to apply than the spray.
: Cheers, Jeremy
: P.S. The picture above (taken this morning) shows just a few tiny
: bits of liquid NewSkin round the edges. Whole thing only took about
: 10 minutes to clean up. I just used a little bit of soapy water and
: my fingernails.
