The first step is to carefully examine the fabric. If the T-shirt is made of a delicate material (such as silk or velvet), then proceed with caution. Avoid rubbing the stain while cleaning it, as this could damage the fabric.
If the T-shirt is made of cotton or polyester, best way to remove makeup stains is to blot the stain gently with a clean cloth. Use a small amount of liquid detergent and lukewarm water, and continue blotting using circular motions until the stain is gone. Once the stain is gone, rinse area with cold water and either let it air dry or tumble dry on a low setting.
If the T-shirt is made of a delicate fabric, then the best way to remove makeup stains is to use a dab of white vinegar mixed with a few drops of liquid dish soap. Dab the solution onto the stain with a clean cloth, and allow it to sit for 30 minutes. Rinse the area with cold water, and let it air dry.
