AJW, on 14/11/2008 10:56am Does anyone know what the best way is to remove turmeric stains from fingers and nails. I was chopping fresh turmeric yesterday and I forgot to wear gloves. | |
Mamta, on 14/11/2008 03:04pm Soap is generally good, better than detergent, for removing stains from hands, as well as clothes. Mamta | |
Where\'s lunch?, on 18/11/2008 01:22pm For turmeric stain on clothes, rub some soap and leave item in strong sunlight. Then wash as usual. Usually works. | |
AskCy, on 18/11/2008 05:48pm Where\'s lunch? - I'm presuming you are only talking for a few hours in the sun otherwise you might start to get sun bleaching on all of the garment making it fade ? Ps might have a long wait for some sun to use this technique here in the UK !... lol Steve | |
Winton, on 25/11/2008 02:24pm I have had this before too - can look rather disconcerting as it suddenly looks as if you have taken up chain smoking! I find it just wears off with exfoliation but you can give it a head start by scrubbing with bicarb/citric acid in hot water. | |
Lapis, on 25/11/2008 05:33pm curcumin, the yellow colourant in turmeric, is 2000 times more soluable in veg oil than it is in water, so use warm veg oil. | |
AJW, on 25/11/2008 09:27pm Thanks Lapis, I'm a huge turmeric fan and I will try the veg oil next time. I hate looking like a chain smoker. | |
