I KNOW this will remove LIP STICK even if it's been through the dryer.
1.) Circle the stain with dish soap (DON'T SKIP THIS STEP!!)
2.) Spray the stain inside the circle with WD40.
3.) Allow to set for 20 minutes to reactivate the oils.
4.) Using an old tooth brush, scrub the stain with the dish soap circle. You MAY want to add more dish soap at this time.
5.) Launder as usual.
WD40 WILL remove crayone from walls also if you just spary it on and wipe it off. MAYBE it will work for YOUR problem.
GOOD LUCK!!

i have never personally tried it but i have heard that if you lay the clothing down with an old rag on top of it and iron over them both that the crayon comes out of the bottom one and will go into the top one. It is worth a try!!!!

well the only thing I know that gets crayon out of clothes is vinegar brushed on with a toothbrush but, that is said to only work BEFORE you wash the clothes. Never know though, it's worth a shot. If you are going to try the "iron trick", do that one before trying this one ( old cloth on top of colored on garment and iron both as a sandwich, but i never tried this one before)
