How to Remove Powdered Eye Shadow Stains

Step 1: Make a detergent-water solution by pouring 1/8 teaspoon of laundry detergent and 1 cup of cold water in a spray bottle or container. Stir or gently shake to ensure a thorough mixture. Step 2: Dampen a clean white cloth with the detergent solution and blot the stain to lift it from the carpet.

NorCal Pro Tip: Blot the stain in one direction starting from the edge of the stain working your way to the center. This will prevent spreading the stain onto other carpet fibers.

Step 3: To rinse the detergent from the carpet spray the area with water. Use plain white paper towels and blot to remove the excess moisture from the carpet.

Step 4: After all the excess moisture has been removed, layer several paper towels on the damp area and place a small heavy object on the towels. Leave for 2-4 hours. This will draw out any remaining moisture remaining in the carpet.

Step 5: Once the carpet has fully dried, remove and vacuum to restore the carpet’s resiliency.
