Method #1 to Remove Lipstick from Carpet

Our first method requires Goo Gone, a white cloth, dish soap, and fabric cleaner. Spray Goo Gone onto the lipstick stain. Put the white cloth on top of the Goo Gone and press it into the carpet. As you watch the white cloth you will see that the lipstick will start of seep into the cloth. After the lipstick is no longer seeping onto the cloth. Remove the cloth. Then mix ¼ cup of dish soap with warm water and fabric cleaner. Get a new cloth and soak it in this solution. Blot the stain with this cloth. This should life the stain completely off of your carpet.

Method #2 for Removing Lipstick Out of Carpet

For this method you will want to get some rubbing alcohol and a plain white cloth. Pour some rubbing alcohol onto your white cloth. Blot the stained area. Gently press down without wiping or rubbing the stained area. Life up the white cloth and see if the lipstick tint has transferred onto white cloth. If it has pour rubbing alcohol on a clean area of the cloth and repeat the process until you no longer get any lipstick tint on your cloth. Rubbing alcohol may life the dye out of some carpet materials. Test this method in an inconspicuous spot before you try it in a noticeable area. If the dye in your carpet is not affected by the rubbing alcohol continue on with this method.
