What You'll Need

  • Mild detergent
  • A soft bristled brush
  • Hydrogen peroxide (3%)
  • A clean towel
  • (Optional) An old toothbrush

Steps to Take

  1. Start by dampening the stained surface of your Puma shoes with warm water. This will help to loosen up the lipstick stain.
  2. Once the area is damp, take mild detergent and mix it with a little bit of water in order to form a lather. Use the soft bristled brush to gently scrub the stained area with the lather.
  3. Rinse the area with warm water, making sure to remove all of the soap residue. If the stain is still there, continue to step 4.
  4. Take some hydrogen peroxide (3%) and dab it onto the stained area. Allow it to sit for a few minutes before scrubbing area again with the brush.
  5. Once the stain is gone, rinse the area with warm water and use a clean towel to dry the surface.
  6. If the stain persists, use an old toothbrush to gently scrub the area. This should work to get rid of any remaining residue.

Conclusion

By following the steps above, you should have no problem getting lipstick stains out of your Pumas! Just remember to always use mild detergents and hydrogen peroxide (3%) when cleaning your shoes.
