Remove the smoke smell from your hands

When you are smoking cigarettes you burn tobacco. This creates a smoke containing thousands of chemicals. The smoke has an odor that can be absorbed by anything surrounding it, especially by the hand holding the cigarette. This smell can be difficult to get rid of, but there are effective methods you can try.

How Do You Get Rid of Smoke Smell From Hands?

To remove smoke smell from your hands, try the following methods:

• Soap and water: Washing your hands thoroughly with soap and hot water is a simple but effective method to start with. Rub your hands properly for at least 20 seconds, and make sure to get in between the fingers and under the nails. Rinse with water and dry your hands.
  
  
• Lemon juice: Lemon juice can effectively neutralize malodors. Cut a lemon in half and rub your hands thoroughly with the lemon juice for about a minute. Then rinse your hands with water and dry them.
  
  
• Coffee or tea: Coffee beans or tea leaves can absorb smoke smell and other malodors. Rub your hands together with crushed coffee beans or use moist tea leaves to scrub your hands. Rinse with water and dry your hands.
  
  
• Baking soda: Baking soda, also called sodium bicarbonate, is a natural odor remover. Mix baking soda with water to create a paste. Massage your hands with the paste and focus on areas where the smell is most prominent. Then rinse with water and dry.
  
  
• Hand disinfectant: If you don’t have water and soap available, you could use hand disinfectant or hand sanitizer. Apply a generous amount of disinfectant on your hands and rub them until it dries out. Disinfectant can help to temporarily neutralize the odor.

Avoid smoke smell with IQOS

IQOS is based on modern technology and many years of research. It is an electric device that uses and heats tobacco but is completely smoke-free. IQOS heats the tobacco to a controlled temperature under 350 °C, which doesn’t burn the tobacco like ordinary cigarettes. Instead of smoke, you get steam and therefore avoid the smoke odor that otherwise is absorbed by your hands and surroundings.
