- Liquid dish soap
- Soft cloth
- Distilled white vinegar
- Q-tips
- Baking soda
Clean the Ear Plugs with Soap
The first step is to prepare a soapy solution of liquid dish soap and water. Dip a soft cloth into the mixture and gently rub the stained areas of the ear plugs. Make sure the soap doesn't get into the ear plugs as it might damage them. Rinse the ear plugs with clean water after scrubbing off the eye makeup.
Use Vinegar to Remove Stubborn Stains
If the stains are still present after scrubbing off the makeup, then try soaking the ear plugs in distilled white vinegar for 10 minutes. Then rinse ear plugs and wipe off any excess moisture with a dry cloth. Repeat this step if needed. Depending on the type of eye shadow used, vinegar may not be enough.
Remove Persistent Stains with Baking Soda
If stains seem impossible to remove, then try using baking soda. Make a paste of three parts baking soda to one part water and apply it on stained areas. Leave it on for 15 minutes before scrubbing off with a soft cloth. Rinse the ear plugs thoroughly with water afterwards.
Use Q-tips for Hard-to-Reach Areas
Sometimes the stained areas on ear plugs can be hard to reach. To clean these spots, use a Q-tip dipped in the soapy solution or vinegar to gently scrub away the makeup. Make sure to rinse ear plugs with clean water afterwards.
Conclusion
Eye shadow stains can be a nuisance, but by following these simple steps they can be removed without much hassle. Remember that scrubbing too hard may damage the ear plugs, so use a gentle touch when cleaning them.
