What You’ll Need:

Stain remover
Dish, laundry or oxy detergent
Paper towels or a cloth
Cold water

Step 1: Blot the Stain

With a clean paper towel or cloth, absorb as much of the spilled mouthwash as possible. Do not rub! Rubbing the stain may spread stain further and/or damage the fabric.

Step 2: Use Stain Remover

Spray the stain with your preferred stain-remover product, or a mixture of dish, laundry or oxy detergent and cold water. Allow the liquid to sit for at least 10 minutes.

Step 3: Rinse the Leggings in Cold Water

Gently rinse affected area of the leggings in cold water until all traces of the cleaning solution have been removed.

Step 4: Dry the Leggings

Lay out a clean towel and place the leggings on top. Pat the area dry with a towel or let the leggings air dry.
