Prepare the Stain
Before you start applying any cleaning solutions to the fabric, you should take some time to prepare the stain. Use a soft-bristled brush to gently loosen the foundation stain from the fabric. Next, use a damp cloth dampened with cold water to blot away the excess foundation. Do not rub the fabric, as this could cause stain to spread.
Treat the Stain
Once the fabric is prepped, it’s time to treat stain. Start by filling a bucket or container with warm water and a mild detergent. Submerge the stained fabric into the solution and let it sit for 10-15 minutes. Afterward, rinse the garment in cold water. In many cases, the stain may have already begun to fade.
Remove Remaining Stains
If some of the stain remains, you can try treating it with a few other solutions. One option is to make a paste from baking soda and water and apply it directly to the stain. Let the paste rest for 15 minutes before rinsing off with cold water. You can also lightly spray the stain with white vinegar and let it stand for 10 minutes before washing as usual.
Final Steps
When you’re finished treating the stain, it’s important to finish up properly so that your garment looks its best. Air dry the fabric or use a low heat setting on your dryer. Before wearing your garment, inspect it closely to make sure no remaining foundation stains are visible.
