Start by mixing one teaspoon of dish detergent with one cup of warm water. Dip a soft cloth in the mixture, then gently rub the stain for about one minute. Rinse the spot with cold water before dabbing it with a dry cloth to remove the excess moisture.
Another way to get rid of those pesky eye shadow stains is to use distilled white vinegar and water. Mix equal parts of both liquids in a bowl, then apply it directly on the stain using a soft cloth. Gently rub the stain in circular motions for about one minute, then rinse with cold water.
If you’re looking for a harsher option, rubbing alcohol can do the trick. Be sure to test it on an unseen area first to make sure it doesn’t damage the material. Dip a cotton swab in rubbing alcohol and rub it onto the stained area. Let the mixture sit for about five minutes before rinsing with cold water.
Another effective spot remover is hydrogen peroxide. Make sure the hydrogen peroxide you’re using is at least 20% concentration. Apply it directly onto the stain and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Rinse the area with cold water and use a soft cloth to dab away any excess moisture.
Baking soda is a great tool for spot cleaning because it has natural absorbing properties. Wet a soft cloth with warm water and sprinkle some baking soda onto the cloth. Gently rub stained area in a circular motion for about one minute, then rinse with cold water. Repeat as necessary until the stain is gone.
With these five simple tricks, you can easily remove those pesky eye shadow stains from your American Eagle outfits. Now you can look your best without the worry of leaving behind any smudges!
