Default Question for the ladies

Excuse the sexist title, I'm sure some of you gentleman will have some ideas too

I have some pink lip gloss stains on my jeans (it's not what you think) and I need to get them out. I have read articles online about getting lip gloss off jeans which is normally transparent, using WD40, mechanical grease remover but this stain has colour, so I'm stumped how to get it out. I've washed them twice and it's not even made a difference

Of course it's not, it never is

Did you by any chance received these jeans from your girlfriend/wife and she expects them NOT to disappear?

easy... paint!

apply a coat of paint by error on the spot, and tell your wife that you were cleaning the garage when you stumbled upon an old can of paint that was badly closed...

btw, you would pay 150$ for a "painted jean" in a boutique now, as it's MODE!

[observation] men are more aware of these tricks than ladies!

Hi Dean

It is very hard to remove stains after they have been washed and dried, but you can try these solutions.

You can try some hairspray, just douse the area well and rub hard with a bar of soap then wash.

Another method is to blot the area with a little ISOPROPANOL alcohol. (From Chemist)

Or you can dab with baking soda and lemon juice.

One of them should work

Fire will without a doubt get rid of the stain. That'll get rid of the jeans too though so it might not be a suitable solution.

Thanks for the useful input UKBusinessLive I'll give hairspray a try later. I'd read about that one too. And honestly there is an innocent explanation for this!

Red stains are very difficult (if not impossible) to remove. This is what I use

I was in a nightclub, and sat on some lipgloss
