Garlic Fingers

Yesterday I decided to chop up a whole lot of garlic so that I won't have to chop small small portions everytime I need them.
After the chopping was completed, I realised my fingers were full of a strong garlic smell!!!
I rubbed a bit of lemon juice on my hands, trying to get rid of the smell (just like getting rid of the smell of fish). However, it didn't work!!!
The whole day I had to endure the strong smell on my fingers...couldn't touch my hair, or Manik's face...
Help~does anyone know hot to get rid of the smell instantly???
Tri, you are the south-east asian food expert, any idea??

Two ways to get rid of it: use a stong soap, like lava (the soap, not liquid rocks). the other way is to use lemon juice and baking soda. this is the routine. put some lemon juice on your hands, then put some baking soda. rub your hands together and rinse. it should leave you smelling lovely. you can sub in lime juice, but becareful, lime juice has a chemical (i can't remember what it's called) that makes your skin suseptable to light, particularly in people who are already photosensitive. lime juice left on your skin unattended in direct sunlight can cause 1st degree burns within minutes. anyways, thats for the first foods, hot peppers are a bit different.
