"Have you been painting and you got some of that paint on your skin. My name is Keeley Selvage with Keeley's Skin Solutions and I'm going to tell you how to remove oil based paint from the skin. The first thing you want to do is get some oil and you apply it to the paint on your skin. You can use vegetable oil, you can use baby oil; I like to use almond oil for everything. So I'm going to put it on the area and we're going to rub it and just really rub it into that paint for a good minute. But you will see the paint really start to break up, start moving around even. Then you want to get a wash cloth and just rub it really good. And you may need to reapply the oil. Just be persistent and be patient with it and it will eventually come off, just use that wash rag, some vegetable, baby or almond oil and you'll be good to go. My name is Keeley Selvage with Keeley's Skin Solutions and that is how you remove oil-based paint from the skin."
