What You'll Need

  • Paper towels
  • Mild soap
  • Stain remover
  • Warm water
  • Clean cloth

Step 1: Blot the Stain

The first step is to gently blot away excess lipstick from the sundress with a paper towel. Don’t scrub or rub, as this could cause the stain to spread further.

Step 2: Apply Mild Soap

Once you’ve blotted away excess lipstick, the next step is to apply a small amount of mild soap to the stain. Gently massage the soap into the fabric in a circular motion, being careful not to rub too hard.

Step 3: Use a Stain Remover

If stain still remains after the first two steps, the next step is to use a commercial stain remover. Apply it to the stain according to the instructions on the package, then let it sit for several minutes.

Step 4: Rinse with Warm Water

Once stain remover has had time to work, rinse the area with warm water. Use a clean cloth or sponge to gently scrub away any lingering residue.

Step 5: Air Dry

Finally, hang the sundress up to air dry completely before wearing again.

Conclusion

That’s all there is to it! With this guide, you now know how to remove lipstick stains from a sundress safely and efficiently. Good luck!
