Yes, who would've thought that using hair removal cream to remove the ink from your finger actually works? In a viral TikTok video, user @_namjhyk showed how to wash off the ink using hair removal cream and cleansing water.

All you need to do is rub a small amount of cream on your inked finger and wait for three minutes for the ink to fade off. Then, wash it off with any brand of cleansing water using a cotton pad.

2. Cleaning Block Foam Magic Sponge Eraser | RM0.34

This sponge eraser is good for removing tough stains. It can also remove the ink on your finger. To remove the stain, you'll need to soak the sponge in water and scrub your inked finger gently. You can add soap while scrubbing and then finish up by rinsing your finger with water.

If it feels tough on your skin, make sure to use a moisturising cream after.

Another way to remove the ink on your finger is by using the Silkygirl Quikclean nail polish remover. An ingredient present in the nail polish remover, which is acetone, can help dissolve the ink on your finger. However, do note that acetone may cause skin irritation if used too much.

The amount of acetone in the nail polish remover is lesser, thus gentler on the skin. You can use it by pouring a bit on a cotton swab and rubbing the inked finger. Then, rinse and repeat until the ink is gone. Finally, moisturise your finger.

5. IDEALCARE alcohol swabs | RM7
