It can be frustrating when you accidentally drop your eye shadow and it leaves a stain on your favorite J Crew clothes. But don’t despair, it’s possible to get most eye shadows stains out of fabric – even if they’ve set in.
Step 1: Scrape off Excess Eye Shadow with a Knife
Gently scrape off any excess eye shadow with a blunt knife or spoon. This will help make the stain easier to remove once you start cleaning it.
Step 2: Blot with a Paper Towel
Place a paper towel over the stained area, then pat and lightly press down to absorb the remaining eye shadow. Be sure to use a clean paper towel each time and never rub the stain as that can make it spread further.
Step 3: Apply Cold Water
Once you’ve blotted stain as much as possible, soak a cloth in cold water and apply it gently onto the affected area for up to five minutes. This should help loosen the stain.
Step 4: Wash as Normal
Check the care label instructions for your J Crew item and wash as usual. Make sure to use cold or lukewarm water as hot water may cause the stain to set permanently.
