Introduction

The following guide will allow you to remove makeup stain from any piece of clothing, but more specifically cotton shirts and tops. Please proceed with caution for expensive clothing. For larger or stronger stains, use larger amounts of cleaning products. In addition, please be aware of delicate fabrics and dry-clean only market clothing as they require special treatments done by professionals. You may also take a look at this article from Glamour magazine that gives a couple of different ways to remove makeup stain from clothing.
