1. Use a dull knife or spoon to remove as much as possible.

2. Dampen the stain and rub with bar soap, dishwashing liquid, or liquid laundry detergent. Then rub the stain between thumbs. Rinse well.

3. Repeat step 2 until no more stain can be removed.

4. If the stain remains, especially if the makeup is oily, soak in a sudsy mixture of water and detergent for 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse well.
