This method involves the use of detergent again, so only use it for your hands. Mix two teaspoons of baking soda with two tablespoons of dishwashing liquid or laundry detergent. Mix well until you get a homogenous mixture. This method is considered to be efficient because of the abrasive properties of the baking soda, and also because it is known for removing dead skin cells. The detergent attracts the dye molecules, and in combination with the baking soda, it will leave your skin stain-free.
Rub the mixture onto the affected areas using a cotton pad and circular movements for 30-90 seconds. It goes without saying that you need to remove as soon as possible the mixture off of your skin if you feel itching, burning or other signs of irritation. Rinse the area thoroughly with warm water. Repeat if necessary.
