Makeup stains on white towels can be frustrating, but fortunately, they’re usually removable with the right approach. Here’s a practical guide on how to effectively remove makeup stains from your white towels.

Step-by-Step Guide to Removing Makeup Stains

1. Act Quickly

The sooner you treat the stain, the easier it will be to remove. Don’t let makeup settle deeply into the fibers.

2. Pre-Treat the Stain

Liquid Makeup (foundation, concealer): Apply a small amount of dish soap or liquid detergent directly onto the stain. Gently rub the fabric together or use a soft toothbrush.
Lipstick or Oil-Based Makeup: Dab the stain gently with rubbing alcohol or makeup remover on a cotton pad.
Mascara and Eyeliner: Use micellar water or makeup remover on a cotton pad to blot and lift the stain gently.

3. Soaking Method

For stubborn stains:

Fill a basin with warm water mixed with oxygen-based bleach or a stain-removal solution.
Soak the towel for 30 minutes to an hour.

4. Wash Normally

After pre-treating or soaking, wash the towel in hot water (check towel care instructions). Use regular detergent and add a scoop of oxygen bleach for enhanced stain removal.

5. Inspect Before Drying

Before placing towels in the dryer, ensure the stain is completely gone. Heat drying can set the stain permanently. If stains persist, repeat steps above.

Additional Tips for Stain Prevention

Consider using dark-colored towels or disposable makeup wipes specifically for makeup removal.
Use separate towels specifically for makeup removal purposes to avoid staining your regular bath towels.
