What are your tricks to removing makeup from clothing?

I'm particularly looking to find out how to get eyeliner (pencil) out of clothing, but I think it would be great to get a good collection of tips/tricks together for all us ladies :)What are your tricks to removing makeup from clothing?
Best thing to do is treat it before it's ';set in';. I got liquid foundation on a white shirt, it NEVER came out! I am pretty sure that if I had treated it with SHOUT right away, and not gone ahead and worn it the whole day, it probably would not have stained.





I use SHOUT for just about every stain. If it can take out baby food stains, it can take out just about any other stain.





Something one of my girlfriends told me about using is carborator cleaner (found in the motor oil section of Walmart type stores, or automotive stores) to get anything with a ';greasy'; consistency out. Spray it directly on the stain, let set a few minutes, then wash as normal. Eyeliners are typically a type of grease pencil, so you may find a shot of carb cleaner will take it out.

most makeup is oil based try using a bit of Dwan dish soap as a pretreater before washing.(use cold water too)
You should try Organic Jojoba Oil.. can remove anything and also good with every skin even the most sensitive skin.


I love it! :)
oxyclean- it gets rid of absolutely EVERYTHING!!!!!! i have not encountered a single stain that i have not been ale to remove with oxyclean
Shout it out. That works on everything. Spray it before you wash the item. The idea of a collection is a good one.
Take it to the drycleaners and tell them what it is. I bought a book calle ';Home Comforts'; that would tell you how to get everything out of anything. It also helped with many household jobs. I hightly recommend it.
baby wipes
plain soap-dish immediately
