1. Use a Soft Cloth

Soak a soft cloth in lukewarm water, and gently blot the stain until it is removed. Avoid scrubbing the surface to prevent further damage. If necessary, you can use liquid dish detergent instead of water.

2. Use Rubbing Alcohol

Dampen a cloth with rubbing alcohol, and gently dab stained area. Keep in mind that rubbing alcohol can cause discoloration, so it's best to perform this method on an inconspicuous area first.

3. Use Vinegar

Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water, and lightly spray the stained area. Let it sit for a few minutes before wiping it away with a cloth. You can also use vinegar and baking soda to make a paste that you can apply directly to the stain.

4. Use Nail Polish Remover

Dip a cotton ball in nail polish remover, and gently blot the stained area. Keep in mind that nail polish remover contains acetone, which can damage acrylic, so it should only be used as a last resort.

5. Take It to a Professional

If all else fails, take acrylic surface to a professional for cleaning. This is safest way to remove eyeshadow stains, as a professional will know how to properly clean the surface without causing further damage.
