How to remove super glue from skin?

Try nail polish remover. Then use a boatload of lotion and see if that gets it off.

Thanks to Naomie (above) I now know of a lot of possible ways to remove super glue from skin. But which one should I try first? I am going to list the ideas I learned about and hopefully the community here can help me decide, based on your experience.

1. A paste made of coconut oil and baking soda
2. Simple salt and water - getting the finger wet and adding a lot of salt, and rubbing
3. Applying butter or margarine
4. Olive oil
5. Laundry detergent
6. Vaseline (petroleum jelly)
7. Lemon juice
8. Sand paper (ouch!)
9. Peanut butter
10. Vinegar (regular or apple cider)

I'd love to hear from anyone who has actually used one of these and it worked? Or do you know that any of them does not work? I think I will try olive oil first, since that seems easy, it's something that I have, and it does not involve chemicals. Wish me luck!

Nothing works except time and friction.

Actually , your skin has oil in it , so it's just a question of time and the glue will come off by itself .

Do the dishes in the s ink a few times! It should be gone in a day or so!

Mary,

You body is constantly shedding skin cells so it should not take long. Rubbing your thumb and finger together will accelerate the process. You could try applying hydrogen peroxide on it and around it, which may help to peel so skin away. Hydrogen peroxide is an oxygenator and will cause your skin cells to rupture. I just try to forget about it and it's gone within a few days.

Try pure acetone or, as already suggested, nail polish remover. Either will work, but time also will take care of your dilemma.

I googled it and came up with

"goo gone for skin" & then they say you can order it. It's available at stores too.

Acetone, from the hardware store, not nail polish remover. Works like a charm.

Regular nail polish remover is not strong enough. But if you only have a small area on your finger, give it a try.

1. Hello, you can try these, hoep they help you out
2. Lather up: “Wash the area with soap and warm water,” Dr. Anthony suggests. “Hand soap or dish soap works well. .
3. Get a greasy product: Rub an oily, skin-safe substance onto the area. .
4. Use acetone: Nail polish remover with acetone usually works, but it's the most damaging to the skin
5. goo gone
