Fabrics soiled with makeup are often difficult to remove. Stains from lipstick, foundation, or eyeliner shouldn’t be removed in the washing machine; they require a pre-wash and should be treated carefully to restore the garment to its original appearance.
Typically, they are thrown into the washing machine and 1,000 products are poured directly into the drum or detergent drawer in the hope that one of them, such as bleach, might solve the problem.
This doesn’t happen because the stain sometimes hardens even without appropriate treatment. This leads to wasting a lot of time between washes and then resorting to a laundromat, which can remove any stain with its professional and very expensive products.
Natural remedies – here’s why we
prefer them. First of all, it’s advisable to try foolproof natural remedies. There are products that everyone has at home, or especially in the kitchen, that work instantly and extremely gently, and with which you can achieve incredible results without spending a single euro.
The ingredients we use in cooking should be selected according to the stain and the type of fabric soiled by the makeup. It happens to everyone at least once in their life: when you squeeze the tube of foundation to squeeze out the product, a large amount of cosmetic suddenly spills out, splashing the bathroom window and inevitably your clothes.
Whether it’s a T-shirt or a shirt, you can try an ingredient that’s everywhere and never lacking in the kitchen: baking soda. Rub the product into the stain, perhaps with a toothbrush. After a few minutes, the stain will disappear. Then, the garment can be put directly into the washing machine.
