Onions!

How do you get rid of the smell of onions from your hands?:)

Lakeland have a special metal thing that you just rub on your hands and it removes the smell. It's a bit like a metal bar of soap...

Apparently it really does work!

Actually, you don't have to buy one. If you wash your hands with a bit of washing up liquid in the kitchen sink and then run your hands over and around the tap it does the same thing, plus your tap is clean too. Give it a try.

Thanks Jazz but I did this and my hands still smelt of onions this morning. poooooohhh X

I have a special hand gel to put on after washing your hands and it removes cooking smells. And it works. Don't know if you can get this in the UK.

maybe you have the 'wrong' type of taps, Sheddie. I think that they have to contain some aluminimum. It works every time for me. What about trying a rub over with some lemon.
