How to get liquid foundation out of a comforter?


Question:My kids got into my make-up and "painted" my comforter with my foundation. I have tried washing it, using my makeup remover, stain sticks, and oxy clean and its still in the fabric. It also will rub off onto other things so I can't just let it go as a stain. Any other ideas of things to try to get the stuff out of fabric??

Answers:
I hope that you didn't put it in the dryer. If you did, there is no way you'll be able to get it clean because heat sets stains into the fabric.

If it is rubbing off onto things, you may want to try taking it to a coin-op laundry, and putting into a large capacity washer by itself. It may be that your washer at home doesn't have enough room for it to move freely, which will not get it clean.

Do not take it to a dry cleaner. You'll never get that nasty chemical smell out of it. That would be worse than the makeup.


Take it to a dry cleaners and let them work on it.
if washing it didn't help then maybe it's oil based. try shampoo or dawn dishwashing liquid or some other kind of 'degreaser' product
try nail polish remover.
I would try using a make up remover on it.
