Ink stains happen quickly and it's important to act fast! Grab a cloth or paper towels to press firmly onto the stain and soak up as much ink as possible. Don't rub the stain; use firm pressure to blot it instead.
Once you've soaked up most of ink, run cold water over the stain for a few minutes. The cold water helps to break up the ink particles and make them easier to remove.
If the stain still remains, try applying a small amount of liquid laundry detergent or stain remover directly to the stained area. Gently rub in a circular motion, then rinse with cold water again.
To finish off the ink removal process, place your blouse in the washing machine with a regular load of laundry and launder as usual. If any stain remains, it should be gone by the time your blouse comes out of the dryer.
Never do laundry again. Save time for things you ❤️
