Shaving Cream. This sounds strange but it works.





Dampen the stains with club soda. (If you don't have club soda, just use regular water.) Scrub in some Shaving Cream...any brand is fine, as long as it鈥檚 white shaving cream. Then clean with damp cloths until the stain is gone.





Shaving cream is nothing but whipped soap that doesn't suds much. It will remove the lipstick.How to get pink lipstick out of a cream carpet?
The most vital element in this situation is time - treat ASAP with hot water and any household cleaning products (laundry detergent, soap, etc). If you have Oxi Clean, that generally tends to work the best.





Scrub the area (with some good elbow grease!!) with a small brush, the hot water, and the cleaning product you have.





Hope this helps!
white vinegar


Some carpet stains can be removed with a paste of 2 tablespoons white distilled vinegar and 1/4 cup salt or baking soda. Rub into the carpet stain and let dry. Vacuum up the residue the next day. (Always test on an out-of-sight part of the carpet first).
