When you’re enjoying a sunny summer day at beach or pool, taking proper care of your skin is likely your top priority. However, suntan lotion can easily leave behind unsightly stains on your clothing and especially your sleepwear.
The good news is that you don't have to go out and buy new sleepwear if you get a suntan lotion stain. Here are a few simple steps to help you get the stain out:
- As soon as you notice the stain, blot it with a damp cloth.
- Apply a pre-treatment product such as OxiClean or Shout directly to the stain.
- Once pre-treatment has been applied, wash the sleepwear using cool water and detergent.
- If the stain is still visible, repeat steps 2 and 3.
For better results, make sure to always read the care instructions on the label of your sleepwear before attempting to clean it. In addition, it's important to note that some suntan lotions may cause permanent damage to certain fabrics, so it’s best to test a small section of your fabric with the pre-treatment product before treating the entire garment.
By following these quick and easy steps, you can make sure that your sleepwear looks great, even after getting a suntan lotion stain!
