How to get rid of red skin?

Okay, so I did something really stupid. I used Nair Hair Remover between my eyebrows. The hair came off, but now the skin is pinkinsh-red where I did it! It looks really nerdy! I wouldn't be so concerned but my school's "meet the teacher night" is in 2 hours and it still hasnt gone away(it's been over 3 hours since I did it.! I've already tried aloe vera.|||It's not going to go away soon. Try wearing a hat to cover the top. Wash your face with oatmeal once a day. Yes,oatmeal. If you have seen Bubzbeauty on YouTube, she does it too. It reduces redness, and makes your skin soft too!


Good Luck!|||try putting ice over it for a little bit but that probably was not a good idea nair hair removal is only for your body ,if you use it on your face it will irriate it and turn red..|||well its not going to really quick to go away but if there NO broken skin try petroleum jelly on it


it might help or just use neosporn

I used a cream hair remover from veet. after using it i my skin is red and irritated it's sensitive.?

is this forever? dangerous? is it going to make a scar?|||I don't think it is going to make a scar but I am pretty sure you are allergic to it. I had that same reaction and so now I don't use it. Use some aloe and that will alleviate some of the pain. Good luck|||you will be fine, don't use it again you are obviously sensative to the product.|||No, it won't scar. Just put the conditioner solution on it that came in the package, or use some olive oil on it. (You left it on too long.)|||i used that stuff once and my skin didn't turn red, did you do what the can told you too about trying a little spot of skin and waiting after 24 hours to use more or know not too? i don't think it is permanent but you should probably just stick with normal shaving.|||no it wont i have very sensitive skin and i did the same thing and i am fine just try not to do it again|||yes its sensitive. ive tried i as well and my skin burned with redness as well. i was frustrated with this product so i threw it out. later someone had given me this product: avon's skin so soft fresh and smooth facial hair removal cream. i used this and it worked well!! it may irritate my skin a little but it is gone the next day after i'd applied lotion! im on my second order and have been using this product. i hope it works well for you as well.|||I HAVE THE SAME REACTION... it goes away after abt some odd hours or maybe a day. but it does... IT WONT SCAR just dont use it anymore.. if you like it maybe your skin will get use to it... i stopped|||You could have very sensitive skin. Did you leave it on too long? Put Vaseline on it to calm it down. If it is still irritated on Mon., see a dermatologist.|||it won't last forever and it probably won't scar - sounds like you're allergic to it - stop using the product and apply lotion with aloe to the affected area - the aloe should relieve the redness and any itchiness.|||try not to let it on too long|||It is not going to scar, but you are allergic to it and/or left it on for too long.

How to get red dried nail polish out of the carpet? ?

I have a light pink carpet and recently spilt bright red nail polish all over it, I've tried nail polish remover but it didn't work, is there anything else I can try?|||Often nail polish on carpet is just on the very tips of the fibers. If this is the case you can just snip the polish off with sharp scissors.





Just cut the very tips of the fibers. Work slowly. Don't cut a single millimeter more than you have to and pull up while cutting. This will help prevent divots in the carpet. Try your best to do just one or two fibers at a time...not a whole clump.





This will work unless you have used nail polish remover and have worked the nail polish deeper into the carpet.





Good luck.





-|||Nail polish remover will remove not only the polish, but also the dye in the carpet. Try hydrogen peroxide dabbing at first then maybe some scrubbing after wards with a tooth bush. If that doesn't work you can use rubbing alcohol.|||Bad news. You can't.|||Try using some baking soda.

How do I get the remove red dye which has bled onto other clothes?

I used Rit Color Remover and that was a complete disaster - it actually took the color out of the blue clothes and left all the red in. Completely worthless and expensive effort. I've had other instances of red color bleed and bleach has never worked for me. I do not ever dry the damaged clothes before trying to get the red out. This last batch was washed several times as well as using color remover.


My husband said to just write it all off and that's probably good advice.


Please don't answer to tell me to use bleach or Rit anything.


Thanks!|||Hi Noel,


I have been there done that, and have ruined lots of clothes in the past. Now I keep in the laundry cupboard a product called Dylon Colour Run Remover - Coloursafe. It's a life saver when your coloured clothes turn pink because of red colouring.





If your clothes are coloured it's important you only use the "Coloursafe" Dylon Colour Run Remover and try to treat it as soon as possible.

If your clothes are white and turn pink because of red colouring then you can use Dylon Colour Run Remover - Whites


http://www.dylon.com.au/fc-whites.htm





The product really works, but don't be temped to use the Dylon Colour Run Remover - (Whites) on your coloured clothes like I did one time. It will do the same thing as Rit Colour Remover did to your clothes.





Your husband might be right, it could be to late to save your clothes this time. But it's a good idea to have both Dylon Colour Run Remover for Whites and Coloured clothes in you laundry cupboard for future accidents.





I can buy this brand where I live. If you can't get the same brand where you are there is sure to be another brand that does the same thing.





From Noelene Sydney Australia.|||You're never going to be able to enjoy those clothes again, even if you find a way to remedy the problem.





If you don't want to save them to wear while painting, gardening, or cleaning around bleach splatters ... I say cut them up for cleaning or car washing rags.





I'm an extremely frugal person. But, there comes a time when it's more important to know when to quit wasting your time.|||Umm... So you put them in boiling water one by one and let them stay in for like 5 min. and then take them out and ta-da! No more red!!!

Should I strip/use color remover or bleach my hair?

I have very long, dyed dark warm brown hair right now but I want to go red. Not like fire engine red, but an intense deeper red. Would I be better off using color remover to attempt to strip my hair of color, or using bleach?|||Use strip and colour remover. Bleach will damage your hair a lot.|||I always use Color Oops. It is super easy to use and can take my black hair back to my natural blonde in one application. I use it all the time so I can dye my hair red.

If you put wart remover cream in a open cut will it get infected?

i have a open cut and one of my friends gave what he thought was neosporin but after we put it on we found out that it was actually wart remover cream and now my cut is red and swollen is it infected?|||sounds like it. dont panic, just rinse it well with warm water (about 20 mins) and then get some antiseptic or some dettol/savlon diluted with water ( about 1 to 4 of water) and soak for about 5 mins, dry it off and sprinkle some talc on it to dry it up. should be ok then. but go see the doc anyway. the label for the ointment should tell you if there are any dangers.

Best eye-make up remover for sensitive eyes?

I wear mascara quite often but when i take it off with my usual remover my eyes go red and sting. Are there ones that are less harsh?|||You can just use baby wipes for sensitive skin. That's what I use and they work good. Just make sure that they don't contain alcohol and then they don't sting.|||Use sensitive baby wipes its a lot cheaper and smoother.|||I have the same problem, and Ive recently solved it!!





I use Johnsons 3 in 1 sensitive skin facial wipes, they don't sting at all! However, if it stings for you, splash your face with cold water straight away after :)





If you dont like wipes, use natural make up removers (if its natural/organic, it wont have chemicals in )|||I've had good luck with Mary Kay brand eye make up remover.|||Simple (the brand) face wipes. I have extremely sensitive eyes aswell and they are really good!


Boots, Superdrug and Sainsburys, all stock them, but they are available almost anywhere and they are inexpensive!

Will nail polish remover damage a macbook?

I have red nails and i accidentally scraped them against my white macbook. Is it ok to use nail polish remover on my laptop, and if not what can i use to remove the nail polish?|||If your nail polish remover contains acetone I think it may cause some discolouring, but only when exposed to long periods of time. I think ISOPRO or any high percentage ispropyl alcohol (90%+) will work too but then again, I'm not completely sure.|||It won't discolor the plastic, but it will melt the plastic, acetone melts plastic. DO NOT USE ON PLASTIC.


Acetone also dulls any painted surface.





I would just leave it alone and let the polish wear off by itself.





Alcohol will dull painted surfaces also.

How do i dye my very dark red hair chocolate brown?

I have dark hair with a tint of red (used to be very red) I want to get a chocolate brown for summer.


Would i achieve this by using hair colour remover and then putting a dye on top? Is it even possible? I am sure it is because Cheryl Cole has recently done this.


Thanks|||You can try to strip it,but if your hair has been dyed a lot or is damaged it may not work. But theoretically you should be able to strip it and dye over the top. Don't be alarmed if it goes a funny colour once stripped|||here are some tips before you dye your hair with different color about hair color remover.

Dark Red nail polish on carpet?

I spilled some dark red nail polish on my carpet. I removed some of it with polish remover, but am afraid to use more because it might damage the carpet. Any ideas on how to get it out.|||To remove nail polish from carpets, nail polish remover will work but you need to use caution because it can also remove dye from your carpet.On light coloured carpet it might not be noticeable but on darker colours. TEST FIRST!For carpet, always test any kind of chemical stain remover/cleaner in an out of the way place like a corner. Non-acetone polish remover is probably safer but no guarantees. Nail polish remover may be harmful to carpet or fabric.Do not use nail polish remover unless you read the label as it may be harmful to different types or carpet.You could also try using a lot of water, keeping the stain wet, then use about 15-20 squirts of hair spray and 3-5 splashes of rubbing alcohol. Scrub gently with a small scrub brush. Blot with paper towels. Repeat as necessary. Don't forget to keep pouring water during the process. You could try using shaving cream, Windex,or rubbing alcohol. I have heard some of these have worked.


You could even try one tablespoon of ammonia and 1/4 cup hydrogen peroxide depending on what colour your carpet is but make sure the room is well ventilated.|||let it dry, get on hands and knees with good light and use stout tweezers and a pocket knife to abrade the paint off the fibers. If too stubborn for this and you can get away with it, cut into the dried blob with tiny, sharp sturdy sissors, and brush it with a stiff brush. Or cut out tiny blobs without making too much of a big noticable hole. You can also use something like white-out dry-dabbing ever-so-carefully to soften the garish or pinkish leftover.|||I know it's kinda late for this, but I would buy some to keep on hand for the next time. I saw this stuff on one of the home shopping shows. It was shown by a man named PROFESSOR AMOS. Thats the name of his products. The one you need is the one with banana oil. You won't believe the stuff! It works on lots of stains, not just nail polish. I spilled burgundy polish in my husbands new truck. I got out what I could with remover, then used Professor Amos' product, and it all came out. I've used several of his products, and they all do just what he says.

How to deal with cream hair remover side effects?

I used Nair cream hair remover for face last night and I think it took off the top layer of skin or SOMETHING because now I have red scars and it burns a little whenever I put moisturizer on it...is there anything I can do to get rid of this ASAP?|||The hair remover was too strong for your sensitive skin. It caused a chemical burn due to the harsh chemicals and you may have left it on too long for your skin.


There is nothing you can do to get rid of it, like all cuts, scrapes, and burns you just have to let them heal. You can apply some neosporen to help it heal faster, but for now it's just a waiting game.|||I agree with the previous respondent. The creams like Nair say no more than 10 minutes on but if your skin is sensitive i would start off with 5 minutes see how it works and add a minute each time. lso, never do this on skin after a shower when pores are open; that will irritate your sking for sure

Why is my face red and dry after taking off my makeup?

I wore makeup for the first time last night and today after I took my makeup off last night, my skin is dry and red today. I even have to pimples on the top of my lip below the nose.


Do you think that it is from using this makeup remover I brought that is only meant for lips and eyes, which I used on all of my face and neck.|||Well, one of the things might be is because your skin isn't use to all the makeup, then makeup remover. If, you're like me, your skin will most likely always behave like this with cheap makeup, and harsh removers. Try to use more brand-name makeups, so your sure that it won't be cheap, and hurt your skin. As for removers and cleansers for your face, use types that are specifically meant for sensitive skin.


Hope this helped! :D|||I feel your pain.





I think it could be from the make-up or the remover.





I am guessing that you have pretty sensitive skin. Wearing and removing make-up without wrecking your skin in the process will be a challenge.





Let's start from the beginning. I don't know what type of make-up you are wearing but some of them are quite hard to remove.





Use a creamy remover. There are tons of them out there. I happen to like a product called The World's Greatest Make-up Remover available at the drugstore but Neutrogena makes some good ones.





Then you are going to need to cleanse your face. Use the most gentle cleanser available. CeraVe is good as are some by Olay. Again, lots to choose from. But what you shouldn't do is use a heavy duty cleanser to get everything off of your face at once because you will just strip your skin.





From there you can use a non-alcohol toner and light moisturizer but these are steps that you can skip.|||The redness could be an allergic reaction to the makeup remover you're using or your skin might be sensitive.|||your makeup may contain HCl, its an acid commonly found in the product you are using.


HCl is meant for people with strong facial skin,

How to get red nailpolish off a green shirt?

yeah about a one inch streak of red nail polish on my green shirt, not pretty.


how can i get it off? i tried a tiny bit of nail polish remover, and it didnt really work, and i'm afraid to try more because i'm afraid it'll corrode or do something to the fabric.


any suggestions?|||You can try almost everything (except bleach)





Sometimes Windex, Easy Off, OFF, hairspray, or non-acetone polish remover will help.





I'm not sure which one will work best with your fabric.

Can I dye a blue acrylic blanket by using red dye?

I am buying a 100% acrylic baby blanket for my daughter. It's a blanket that has been discontinued so finding the right color has been difficult. I finally found a blue one and I want to dye it a light purple color. Can I just use a small amount of red dye? Or would using a color remover then purple dye be the best route...?|||First you would need a special kind of dye because the ones we can buy in the craft store won't work on acrylic. If there's a silky binding, there isn't any dye that will color it. Because you can't predict how much red dye you would need to get the shade of purple you want, I'd go with your idea of using the the color remover first. http://dharmatrading.com might have dyes that will work on acrylic.
