You get New Skin off your skin the same way you get chewing gum out of
your hair. Oil. Cocoa butter is my favorite. I rinse my hands when
I unwrap and that loosens everything up. Then I oil and rub 3 or 4
times through the morning. That takes it all off. If you do latex
over New Skin, pulling off the latex pulls off the NS.

Don't get impatient and rub and scrub! NS will come off in a day even
if you ignore it and just let it flake off with the flexing of your
skin. One day's annoyance with New Skin, is, to me, worth being sure
that delicate complex patterns will NOT smear, and will be very dark
and absolutely pristine.

NS is not the answer for every henna situation. It does, however,
provide an excellent solution to several problems. It's best for
situations where speed and accuracy are crucial, and outdoor hennaeing
where lemon-sugar would draw bees.
