Makeup marks vs. White clothing
Rushing to get ready only becomes more stressful when a drop of foundation lands on your white clothing. But it is no match for Handy Andy Cream (yes, it’s not only for kitchen counters).
- Simply apply a drop or two of Handy Andy directly to the stained area.
- Rub it in until it disappears.
- Follow up with a normal machine wash, and your shirt will come out clean, crisp and as good as new!
An oily situation with a dishwashing solution
Nothing ruins an outfit like an oil stain, but we’ve got a solution.
- Apply talcum powder immediately and leave it on overnight to absorb the oil.
- The next morning, use a drop of Sunlight dishwashing liquid on a clean, damp cloth as a grease solvent to remove what’s left.
- Pop it into the washing machine and wash as normal for an oil-free garment.
The secret to tackling red stains
We all love indulging in our favourite tomato-based pasta or a glass of red wine to unwind, but a night of pleasure can turn into a messy, red situation. Luckily, we’ve got the answer to that problem.
- First, blot the stain as quickly as possible to absorb as much of the liquid as possible.
- Next, apply New OMO Supersoak Handwash Powder directly to the area with some water and hand wash.
- Then, soak your garment with the new OMO Supersoak Handwash Powder for a minimum of five minutes.
- Lastly, wash the garment as normal and leave it out to dry.
