Using a spoon or other non-sharp object, carefully remove any excess eye shadow from the clothing. Blot the area with a damp cloth to remove as much as possible, without rubbing too hard.
Mix a mild detergent with some lukewarm water to create a solution, then wet a clean cloth with the soap solution and gently blot at the stain.
Once stain has been treated with the soap solution, rinse the area with cold water. It is important not to rub fabric as this could cause it to become damaged.
If any traces of the stain remain, you can try treating it with a mixture of white vinegar and lukewarm water. Wet a cloth with the mixture and gently dab stained area. Allow the vinegar to sit on the fabric for 5 to 10 minutes before washing as usual.
Once all of the stain is gone, you can wash the item of clothing as normal. You may need to repeat this process several times if the stain does not come out immediately. Hang to dry when finished.
