Removing Mascara Stains From New Balance Shoes
- Start by dabbing the area with a clean cloth or paper towel to help absorb any excess liquid. Don’t rub it in since that could make the stain worse.
- Apply some laundry detergent to a cloth and gently work it into the stained area. Let the detergent sit for a few minutes.
- Rinse with clean water and repeat until stain is gone.
- Once the stain has been removed, let the shoes air dry before wearing.
Using Natural Ingredients To Clean Your Shoes
If you don’t have detergent handy, there are a few natural ingredients that can also work to remove the stain. You can use toothpaste, baking soda, or even white vinegar to help remove the stain.
- To remove the stain with toothpaste, start by dabbing the area with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb any excess liquid. Then, put some toothpaste onto a damp cloth and gently rub the stained area. Rinse and repeat if necessary.
- To use baking soda, mix with a small amount of water and apply to the stained area. Let it sit for a few minutes and then wipe away with a damp cloth. Rinse with clean water and repeat if necessary.
- White vinegar can also be used to remove the stain. Simply mix a quarter cup of white vinegar with a cup of warm water and apply to the stained area. Let it sit for a few minutes and then wipe away with a damp cloth. Rinse with clean water and repeat if necessary.
