Clean Hands...
 
Maybe it's just me, but usually after I smoke a cigar my hands stink from holding the cigar, and that stink does not wash off easily.

Thanks to Mark and Brian (morning radio show on KLOS FM in LA) I have a solution that I have tested.

It sounds crazy, but wash your hands with toothpaste. The basic white Colgate toothpaste is fine, but you can use the fancy stuff too. Be aware that whitening toothpaste contains Hydrogen Peroxide, which can be an irritant if you have sensitive skin -- that's why the basic white Colgate works best.

Just take a dollup on damp hands and rub it around -- just like soap. Scrub well, risnse and viola - clean hands!

Anyway, I've tried this a couple of times and it works great! It kind of makes sense as toothpaste has to be a powerful cleaner and deorderizeor in order to clean your teeth and mouth.

Very cool...I'll have to give that a try. That's the one thing the little lady complains about...she doesn't like stinky fingers. :r:r

I've been doing this for quite a while. It works pretty well, doesn't always take care of it, but it really does help. :)

I just wash with normal soap, then sprinkle a little lemon or lime juice that come in those little plastic containers. You'll have fresh smelling hands for sure.

If you smoke a cigar that has a dyed wrapper, and the dye comes off on your fingers.... Would this be considered a dirty sanchez? :=:

Using a hand sanitizer works too.....then follow that up with some hand soap! Works wonders.

Not being funny, but you must perspire a lot? I personally don't have
this problem, and don't believe i've experienced it. I was once dating
this girl and because she was a non smoker, i didn't smoke for a whole
week when she came to visit me. She still complained about smelling
smoke on my breath... "Go Figure"?:r
