wash you hands w/ lemon. make sure to reach the in-betweens of you fingers because that's where most of the smell stays. rinse you hands w/ the regular washing method. repeat the steps if smell is still there.

All of the above are good suggestion lemon oil, aluminum foil, silver spoon. One time when I was away from home I didn't have anything else so I opened a packet of mayonnaise and used it. It has lemon in it. Washed my hands and the smell was gone.

Rub your hands with a stainless steal spoon under warm water. This helps with garlic too. Best to do this right away so the smell doesn't absorb into your pores.

Hold a stainless steel knife between your thumb and index finger then run water over your hands. It works for garlic, so I imagine it will work for onions too.

Stainless steel. You can buy a bar of stainless steel made just for this purpose. Also lemon juice with salt sprinkled in your hand helps also.

Use lemons. Actually cut it open and rub it on your hands. Use the juice like lotion.

sounds crazy but a peeled potato works. use it like a bar of soap.

I use vinegar to rinse the odor away. Rinse in water after you use it. It has never failed.
