I'm really freaked out because I accidentally super glued a flashlight to my forehead. It's really starting to hurt because it has the batteries in it and everything.

baby oil or nail polish remover. npr will work faster, but the oil won't sting your skin as much.

I am just wondering how it happened.. seriously, I want to know.
Anyway... remove the batteries from the flashlight. And use nail polish remover and put it all around the flashlight.. have some do it for u tho and u lay down cause you don't want to get it in your eyes. then just slowly keep applying it and hopefully the flashlight will come off. If it doesn't, go to the er or get an appt. w/ ur doctor asap.
good luck!!
please e-mail me and tell me how it happened lilmissfess92@yahoo.com

Best way to remove superglue is taking small amounts of turpentine put it on a paper towel and rub it on the bonded areas. Just don't get too much on your skin its not good for you. (But neither is superglueing a flashlight on it).
Another thing superglue is not water soluble so sweating may not be effective also superglue is extremely flammable as it may not have fully dried so try avoiding direct exposure to heat also.

get some cloth and give this flash light some support so it does not pull on the skin. don't attempt to pull this off or use chemicals to remove it . if possible sit in a hot room and try to sweat a lot . it will come off as you sweat . again don't attempt to pull it off or pour chemicals on it .
i wonder do any of the people here read the entire question or what if you do what half of them are saying you would be lucky not to go blind . don't use any chemical at all it will go in your eyes! time support the flash light and sweat it off . that is all any doctor would ever do .

How could you have accidently done this to yourself? anyway, sorry for the question... your parent might want to get the camera out and snap a few , trust me you will never live this one down.... LOL.. I do not get how you could have possibly done that to yourself? It does not make any sense at all. I would try vaseline, or baby oil. whatever you do , be careful not to get any of this in your eyes.... I hope you are ok? Never mess with flash lights and superglue at the same time ever again. PLease stay safe.

How...why...
Stay in a closed room and put the heat up for a short while (make sure someone knows where you are!). Eventually the sweat from your forehead will loosen the super glue and it will come off.

I'm sorry but i am just laughing too hard to give a sane answer!!! You have enough advice, and I am sure you have already taken the one from the person who suggested you run around screaming. Hope you can get it off without taking half your skin with it!

Well there's no doubt about it, its very obvious what you should do. You must first run around screaming like a moron for 30 minutes. After that, slowly dab some dust from the magical basement. Finally, you must slam it against a lipsker cube.

One product will work great and has an ironic name for this situation. It's called "Goof Off" so you can take the goof off of the flashlight.

Ummm....How'd you accidently do that? You can try nail polish remover with acetone in it but please do your best to keep it out of your eyes. When you get the flashlight off I suggest ALOT of unscented, dyefree lotion because your skin is gonna be MAJOR irritated. Good Luck getting that thing off!
