I would just like to say that I am a smoker, and like you Chelsea, I have now stained my fingers due to changing to rolled cigarettes. I also was looking for a resolve to remove the stain from my fingers due to smoking rolled ones. Also to the non smokers and the worst ones, the gave up smokers, I can applaud you for either not smoking or giving up but are you aware that smokers pay the government 7 billion pounds in taxes alone. not to mention the cost that they have lost due to the millions that have given up. It cost the nhs 1.5 billion to treat smoking related illnesses, so we are still supporting our nhs by 5.5 million. As the NHS is in a mess (and the world financially at the moment) I think we need to carry on supporting out nhs with our 5.5 billion so that non smokers still get the care they need. We are all going to DIE of something wether it be smoking related or not. There is no way out. So to all smokers and non smokers, live your life as you like. I dont tell Obese people to stop eating, I neither tell Drinkers/Alcoholics to stop drinking, therefore, live your life as you will. And be happy.

What a load of miserable proselytising hypocrites...i would like to know how to remove nicotine stains from my fingers. I am an adult and can make my own decisions. What a poor and pathetic life someone must have (or a major guilty desire to smoke) that they turn every opportunity into a propaganda war. What intolerant and illiberal people they are. I don't smoke inside i don't generally smoke in company other than other smokers, and if i go to a friends house i smoke in the garden whether asked or not. The intolerance is worse than that of fascism or communism - they are both based on fear and control. Not dissimilar to the mass of the US population namely the ignorant religious right and their hypocritical sexually perverse ministries - their perversions i can mostly accept happily but their hypocrisy i can not, same as some of the correspondents on this item.

Try soaking in the tub or just your do your fingers in a bowl of warm soapy water and use lemon juice, or peroxide, or toothpaste, then you use an Emory board or nail file or a foot scrubber/shaved works pretty well. I am fighting the ugly stains to, and let me warn ya, I have to do so often. Use lots of lotion and try to switch your cigs to different fingers and not smoke to close to the filter. All the nagging folks have good intentions I hope, but really I think some of them feel better about themselves when they lecture others for something they "overcame". Half of them probably sneak a smoke every chance they get! If they really wanted to help you quit, and they really had been through it themselves, you would think that they would know that nagging someone is not going to help. Love your life how you want. So, they probably won't die of cancer, hooray for them. We probably will die of cancer, what do they care? We all might be in the same freaking pile up on the freeway tomorrow! Nobody knows, and we are the ones that have to suffer for our actions in the end. Not them! I'm gonna go smoke a pack of cigarettes now! Good luck.
