The first thing you'll need to do is gather your supplies. You will need some laundry detergent, a few towels or a rag, a small bowl, and a brush.

Pre-Treating the Stain

Once you have all of your supplies, it’s time to start pre-treating the stain. Begin by moistening the rag or towel and laying it over the stain for about half an hour. This will help to loosen up the rouge and make it easier to remove.

Mixing Detergent Solution

Next, mix a detergent solution in your bowl. Start by adding one teaspoon of detergent to a cup of warm water. Stir the solution until the detergent has completely dissolved.

Applying Detergent

Once solution is ready, apply it to stained area using your brush. Make sure that you apply the detergent evenly over the entire area. Leave the detergent to sit for about 10 minutes.

Washing the Blazer

Once the detergent has had time to work, it’s time to wash the blazer. Place it in your washing machine and set water temperature to warm. Add your detergent as usual and run the cycle.

Drying the Blazer
