If you accidentally get makeup on your couch, don’t panic. Here are some steps to help you remove it:
1. Blot the stain gently with a clean cloth to remove any excess makeup.
2. Mix a solution of mild detergent and warm water.
3. Dip a clean cloth into the solution and gently blot the stain, starting from the outer edges and working your way inwards.
4. Repeat the blotting process until the stain fades away.
5. Rinse the cloth with clean water and blot the area again to remove any soapy residue.
6. Allow the couch to air dry completely.
Remember, it’s important to act quickly and avoid scrubbing, as it can push the makeup deeper into the fabric.
Relaxing on the couch is a great way to unwind after a long day. However, your natural body oils, perfume, and makeup can transfer onto the upholstery, causing stains. While long-lasting makeup may enhance your appearance, it can become a source of stress when it smudges on your couch. To treat a makeup stain, you need to address both the oil and the color by using supplies that absorb the oil and lift the color stain.
Step 1
Using the dull side of a table knife, gently scrape off the makeup from the upholstery. After each swipe, wipe the knife on a paper towel. Continue scraping until you remove as much makeup as possible.
Step 2
Cover the remaining makeup stain completely with baking soda. Leave the baking soda on the upholstery for at least 20 minutes to absorb the oil in the makeup.
Step 3
Use a hand vacuum to remove the baking soda from the couch.
Step 4
Dishwashing detergent is a safe option for removing grease and colorful makeup stains.
Fill a bowl with 2 cups of warm water and add 1 tablespoon of dishwashing detergent. Stir the mixture to create a soapy solution.
Step 5
Dampen a clean cloth with the detergent solution. Wring out any excess moisture to prevent oversaturating the upholstery.
Step 6
Blot the remaining makeup stain on the couch, rinsing the cloth as the stain lifts. Apply more detergent solution and continue dabbing the spot until the makeup stain is completely gone.
Step 7
Rinse the upholstery with a damp cloth and then press a dry cloth onto it to dry. Allow the couch to air dry fully.
