If you've ever accidentally dropped your foundation on the carpet, you know it can be a challenge to get it out. Here are a few tips to help remove that stubborn makeup stain:
1. First, try blotting the area with a clean cloth or paper towel. Gently press down and lift up repeatedly until as much foundation as possible is absorbed.
2. If blotting doesn't seem to be doing the trick, you can try using a mild soap and water solution. Apply the solution to a clean cloth or sponge and gently scrub at the stain until it begins to fade. Be sure to rinse the area well after scrubbing so that no soap residue is left behind.
3. If all else fails, you may need to break out the big guns and use a commercial carpet cleaner or spot remover. Be sure to follow the instructions on the product carefully, as some cleaners can damage carpets if used improperly. Test in an inconspicuous area first to be sure there is no adverse reaction before proceeding with treatment of the stain itself.
