No one can explain the magical effect of lipstick on women, so it is not surprising that lipsticks have attracted fashion influencers and beauty makers. But despite the beauty a lipstick gives, it may cause some damage to clothing, especially after occasions that require using lipstick. It can also put us in an embarrassing situation and ruin our mood while we are out spending some fun time with family or friends, but don't let a lipstick stain spoil your mood!
According to Robert Bell, co-owner of Texas-based THREADS dry cleaners, lipstick is one of the hardest stains to remove because of the wide variety of lipsticks and fabrics.
Is it possible to remove a lipstick stain from clothes without leaving any marks or prints? Of course! We brought you the most effective and easy ways to vanish these stains..
First, you should read the label that is attached to the clothing and be careful if there were some cautions before any cleaning process.
• Some stain removing products can be used on the clothing, and then wash it directly with warm water.
• Avoid rubbing during cleaning the stain, so as not to tear the fabrics of the clothing.
• You can use alcohol on a cloth and wipe the stain with it, then rub it gently with warm water.
• Ammonia gas can also be used, then wash with soap and water.
• Hair sprays also have a role in removing stains from clothes. You can spray a little on the stain and leave it for several minutes, then wipe it with a white cloth and wash it with warm water.
• It is preferable to clean the clothing stained with lipstick at a laundry, especially if these clothes are made of leather or fur or other sensitive fabrics.
• If the piece of clothing is made of silk, you can use a piece of transparent duct tape and press it on the stain area, and then remove it quickly and immediately.
• You can put a little talcum powder and rub gently to remove the left prints of the lipstick on clothes.
• Putting a little toothpaste on the lipstick stain and then rubbing the spot well, will help remove the stain from the clothes.
Now, you won't have to worry about discoloring your clothes while getting
rid of the stubborn lipstick stain.
