Deodorant Dilemma: White Marks Gone

-

 


Deodorant marks can ruin an outfit, but you can get rid of them quickly with these simple steps:

  1. Use a Clean, Dry Cloth: Gently rub the white marks with a clean, dry cloth. Sometimes, just a little friction can lift the residue.

  2. Baby Wipes or Makeup Remover Wipes: If the stain persists, use a baby wipe or makeup remover wipe to gently wipe the area. These are designed to lift makeup and can work wonders on deodorant, too.

  3. White Vinegar Solution: Mix one part white vinegar with two parts water, and apply it to the stain. Gently dab with a cloth, then rinse with cold water. Vinegar breaks down the residue, making it easier to remove.

  4. Rub with Fabric or Nylon: Rubbing the area with a piece of similar fabric (inside of the garment) or a clean pair of nylon stockings can help lift the marks without damaging the fabric.

  5. Pre-Treat with Liquid Detergent: For stubborn marks, apply a small amount of liquid laundry detergent, gently rub it in, and let it sit for 5-10 minutes. Rinse with cold water before washing.

  6. Launder as Usual: Wash the garment according to its care label in cold water. Air-dry and inspect to make sure the mark is completely gone.

These easy steps will leave your clothes looking fresh, deodorant-mark-free, and ready to wear!
