Removing Eye Shadow from Fabric

  • If your Hermes item is made of softer fabric like canvas or cotton, fill a small bowl with warm water and liquid detergent. Swirl the mixture together and dip a soft-bristled toothbrush into the solution. Gently scrub the makeup stain with the toothbrush in a circular motion.
  • Let the cleaning solution sit on the stain for 5 minutes or so. Rinse out the area thoroughly with cold water.
  • If the makeup stain still remains, use a clean piece of cloth soaked with rubbing alcohol and gently dab the area. Repeat this process until the stain is completely gone.

Removing Eye Shadow from Leather

  • If your Hermes item is made of leather, place a few drops of mild liquid dish detergent onto a soft cloth. Spread detergent over the cloth and gently buff the stain in a circular motion.
  • Let the detergent sit on the stain for 5 minutes or so. Wipe off the surface with a dry cloth or towel.
  • If the eye shadow stain still remains, use a cloth soaked with rubbing alcohol and gently dab the area. Repeat this process until the stain is removed.

Tips and Warnings

  • Do not scrub too hard on fabric items as it may damage the material.
  • Do not scrub too hard on leather items as it may cause the leather to become dry and cracked.
  • Always test a small hidden area of the item before applying any cleaner to entire surface.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as it may cause discoloration or damage to the material.
