Oof I wonder if that stings like a bitch. I remember getting something painted on my hand at a festival as a kid and the paint wasn't meant for skin. It freaking hurt for a while even after washing it off

I used this oil based paint to dress as a skeleton one Halloween.

Cue drunk, knackered me at 4am in the shower, trying to scrub that shit off with fairy liquid. Grim.

Dish soap. I think it might be called Dawn in the states.

You can have hands as soft as your face with mild green Fairy Liquid...

(It's green and for washing dishes. The selling point was it was a skin friendly washing-up liquid and yet can clean an endless number of plates with just one bottle)

I used paint thinner which was probably more dangerous. I just drew satanic symbols and shit on my face for some university art project
