@kylie7ann I use pointed q-tips for this.

A popular lip sleeping mask in caramel apple LE stained my silk pillow case. I sleep on my stomach so I don't know what I should do lol

[Sunnysmom]

I’m so glad you asked this @Mellmars1185 ! Someone spilled some champagne on a silk satin blouse and I am despondent!😭 I thought it wouldn’t stain but it did plus left a ring. These tips are so helpful! I hope your pillow case is ok! 

[Titian06]

How awful, @Sunnysmom ! 😔

[Sunnysmom]

Sorry to be such a whiner @Titian06 ! Now I remember why I should never buy a satin shirt! 🤣

[Titian06]

You're not being a whiner, @Sunnysmom !  You should be able to have nice things and expect them to stay nice.  Anyway, you spent your hard-earned money on your blouse.  I would be upset if it were me!  Why can't people be more careful?

[Mellmars1185]

@Sunnysmom Ohh no! Please let us know if any of these methods help get the stain out!

[Sunnysmom]

Will do @Mellmars1185 ! Crazy right! At a wedding so the risks are always there! 😭🤣 The dry cleaners weren’t hopeful because I guess it’s extra tricky being a darker color and also because of the satin sheen. Sigh. 

[Mellmars1185]

@Sunnysmom Oh I am sorry. It sounds like a beautiful top. 

[Sunnysmom]

It’s just a thing but still, it stung @Mellmars1185 !

@Mellmars1185  White vinegar breaks down most oils and is silk safe. 

[Mellmars1185]

@heartsmyface Thank you! I have some at home. I will try this out in my next wash 🙏🤞

[Titian06]

@Mellmars1185 - Shout laundry stain remover works for me.  It's available at Target and Meijer.

Edit:  Sorry, it says not for use on silk.  Check the label on your pillowcase to make sure it is silk and not polyester.  Otherwise, my bad!

[Mellmars1185]

@Titian06 Thank you! It is Mulberry silk. At this point I will try out stain remover. My pillow case looks so bad I will replace it if the stain remover doesn't work.

[Titian06]

@Mellmars1185 - I'm sorry to hear that!  Though I understand.  I'm a side sleeper and get my lip mask on my (cotton) pillowcase all the time. 🙄

[Mellmars1185]

@Titian06 Thank you! I will take this experience as a learning lesson and an excuse to get LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask Intense Hydration with Vitamin C Eggnog Latte ! Hehe

[Titian06]

@Mellmars1185 - I bought that one during the sale.  I hope you like it!  Although I don't think it smells like eggnog, it's a nice light color and does have a nice scent.

[Mellmars1185]

@Titian06 Thank you. I am a BIG egg nog fan. I am drinking it in my coffee daily while it is available.

[Beadshopgirl]

Ugh was it the Laneige one from last holiday? That colour was so awful. Try using cornstarch to absorb the oil, then maybe use a soft toothbrush to massage some gentle laundry soap into the stain before hand washing in cold water. 

[Mellmars1185]

@Beadshopgirl Yes it was! Thank you. I will keep everyone posted on what method works!

[heartsmyface]

Eyes watering after applying dark eye makeup.  Grrrrrr.   I had to adjust my makeup shape to exclude shading on the outer corners of my eyes.
