Step 1: Scrape Off the Excess Makeup
Using a blunt knife or spatula, scrape off as much of eye shadow as you can. Make sure to do this carefully to avoid snagging or tearing the fabric. Do not rub or scrub the affected area as this will just push more of the eye shadow into the material.
Step 2: Pre-Treat the Stain
Mix together a solution of one teaspoon of liquid laundry detergent and one tablespoon of white vinegar with two cups of warm water in a bowl or bucket. Dip a cotton swab into the mixture and apply it to the stained area, blotting it gently. Allow the solution to sit for 15 minutes before rinsing it off with cold water.
Step 3: Wash the Fabric
Rinse off the pre-treated area with cold water to remove any excess detergent and vinegar. Place the fabric in the washing machine and use the delicate cycle on a cold temperature setting. Do not use a hot water setting as this will set the stain and make it harder to remove. Once cycle is complete, check the area to make sure the stain has been removed.
Step 4: Hang to Dry
Once the cycle is complete, hang the fabric outside to dry. Do not put the fabric in the dryer as this will cause stain to set and make it difficult to remove. Once it is fully dry, inspect the fabric for any remaining stains.
Conclusion
Eye shadow stains on pongee fabrics can be removed with careful pre-treatment and washing. Follow steps outlined above and you should have no problem getting rid of those pesky stains. Best of luck!
