Instead, dab carefully with a white cloth. Don't have a white cloth handy? In a pinch, a piece of white bread will work, a hack that's extra helpful if
you're in a restaurant! An oil-based stain, like from a salad dressing, can also be handled with tableside ingredients. Simply sprinkle it with salt,
allow it to sit for a bit and then brush the seasoning off the garment. The salt should have absorbed the oil. Then, continue addressing the stain at
hand by spot treating with whatever you have available. Obviously, a stain pen would be great, but club soda or plain water works well, too. Do
not apply too heavily, instead use the corner of a napkin. Then continue blotting until the stain is completely gone [source: Leverette ].
If you're near a laundry machine — say, a romantic dinner at home? Wash it like normal, and those marks you thought would be there forever will
be long gone. Nothing sucks the fun out of a pickup baseball game quite like an unsightly grass stain. If you cringe at the thought of your kids
roughhousing in the yard because of the work you'll have to put into their clothes afterwards, worry no more. Grass stains aren't as invincible as
they seem. One of the coolest ways to get grass stains out involves a product we all have — toothpaste! Grass stains on clothes can be removed
with an old toothbrush and plain white toothpaste; just make sure you use a paste variety and not a gel. Squeeze a small amount of the toothpaste
onto the stain, then dip the toothbrush in clean water and use it to scrub away the stain.
Repeat this process as needed to treat all of the stain s. Rinse the area and launder the clothing as usual. Now you can steal home plate without a
second thought. Incidentally, toothpaste can also remove ink spots with aplomb! Who knew? If you cut yourself, you're probably more focused on
finding a bandage and possibly on not fainting than you are on keeping your clothes pristine. Once you're all fixed up and the dust settles, a stained
garment just adds insult to literal injury. However, you don't have to slave for hours trying to get the blood stain out. Just use our quick and easy
trick to turn the pain into a distant memory! To remove spots of blood from clothing, use 3 percent hydrogen peroxide — the kind you find in the
first-aid section of the drugstore. Soak the stain with the peroxide, use your fingernail or the blade of a butter knife to help loosen and scrape away
the blood, then rinse it away with more hydrogen peroxide. Then launder as normal. In most cases, you'll have better luck removing stains —
especially blood stains — if you treat them immediately after they happen, before the stains have a chance to dry.
Don't fret too much if you don't have easy access to hydrogen peroxide, however. All you have to do is soak the stain, ideally overnight, in the
soda. Then, wash as normal. Yet another method for removing blood from clothing is to wet the stained area of the fabric with water, sprinkle it
with plain old table salt , rub one half of the stain against the other to work in the salt and loosen the stain, then immediately launder the garment the
way you usually do [source: Shea]. You don't need a special stain remover or laundry pre-treater to banish ring around the collar.
Instead, an item that you surely have lurking in your shower will take care of business! Whether it's on work shirts or Sunday best, staining around
the collar can be easily vanquished with a touch of something you're pretty much guaranteed to have in the house — shampoo. Just pour a little
shampoo onto the collar, rub the collar together to work the shampoo in well, allow it to soak for about 15 to 30 minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
Follow-up by laundering as usual. Although any shampoo will likely do the trick, some experts recommend using a brand that's formulated
specifically for oily hair because it is designed to break down body oils, grit and other stuff that transfers from skin to collar [source: Taylor]. For a
convenient and thrifty twist on this traditional tip, bring home the complimentary bottles of shampoo from hotels for a free package of ring-around-
the-collar remover!
If you've been kissing too much on your sweetheart's collar, we've got just the laundry trick for you! Experts say that lipstick is often one of the
toughest stains to remove since there are so many colors and formulations. The type of fabric stained is also a major factor. In fact, if the stain is on
a garment made of cashmere, wool or silk it's probably best to opt for professional cleaning. For anything else, you should carefully scrape any
extra lipstick off. Then, put down some paper towels on a hard surface. Place the affected area on the paper towels with the stained side facing
down. Then, take a dish detergent with grease-attacking properties and apply it to the back of the stain. Next, flip the garment over to stain side
up.
Carefully scrub the area using a clean toothbrush. Do not rinse the piece. Instead, put it in the washing machine on the gentle cycle and wash as
normal. Repeat the steps until the stain is a thing of the past [source: Gibbs ]! You probably have your work cut out for you on laundry day if the
people pitter-pattering around your home prefer to wipe their hands on their clothes, rather than the perfectly good napkins you provided. This is
particularly frustrating when delicious, but greasy meals like fried chicken are served up. Not only do stubborn grease stains often refuse to come
out, they also never seem to blend into the fabric, so you can't just pretend they're not there. Don't worry too much if this sounds like your life.
Instead, hit the pantry and try this trick: Sprinkle the spot with cornstarch. Allow the cornstarch to soak up the grease for a few minutes, and then
brush it away. The grease spot will lift right out, and you can get back to trying to convince everyone to use napkins instead of their clothes.

on the stain and let it soak in for up to 30 minutes. Follow up by treating with a little bit of dish soap or liquid laundry detergent, once again
allowing it to sit for 30 minutes. Once that's all said and done, run it through the washing machine per usual and then hang it out to air dry, since
running a stain through the dryer virtually ensures that it'll never go away [source: Kerr ].
If you have unsightly stains on your pillowcase, don't worry because you are absolutely not alone. Pillows often get stained by sweat and natural
body oils. Sometimes, simply tossing them in the washer will do the trick and lift the stain right out. But if this standard fix isn't cutting it and the
frustration is keeping you up at night, it's probably time to try another tactic.
Oily stains on pillowcases can be removed with plain shampoo or even liquid dish detergent. Simply apply to the area, rub it in and allow to sit for
a little while. Rinse it out and then launder as you would normally. It's that easy! Another fun fix involves something every parent has lying around
— white chalk. All you have to do is rub the chalk over the oil stain, then let it set for about 15 minutes. Shake or brush off any extra chalk bits,
