anyone know how to get a mascara stain out?

Question

While applying mascara some dripped off and got on one of my favorite white camis... anyone know how to get it off? (i tried to scrub it with detergent and hot water but no use!)

Answer 1

eye-makeup remover should dissolve it right away

Answer 2

When you are trying to remove stains, try not to use hot water, that can actually set the stain. First, use a mild detergent (dish soap or shampoo) is good, than rub with a clean brush (like a toothbrush). If that does work, try ammonia, if you don't have ammonia, try windex (make sure it has ammonia in it, some formulas don't) and let it sit for a minute and rub with a brush.

As always, make sure you test the solution on an inconspicuous spot to make sure it doesn't make things worse.

Best of luck.

Answer 3

Spray it with hairspray, then wash it. If the spot is still not out, apply a small amount of bleach pen to the spot (since it's white anyway) and wash it again.

Answer 4

What do you use to get it off your eyes? Use the same thing...try Mary Kay's Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover...its the BEST stuff I swear! Even if I didn't sell it, I'd tell you to get it!

Answer 5

Hot water is not good. It sets the stain. Try Oxyclean.

Answer 6

Try Makeup remover or rubbing alcohol

Soaps won't do it.

I've heard vinegar cures all problems, try some!

Answer 8

hair spray and a magnet

Answer 9

Answer 10
