Thanks for the advice, the carpet is slowly improving. I just wish I could post a picture of her covered in it! "Beautiful" she said! Well I suppose she still was! Regards Abigail

Try: Scrape up as much excess as possible. Rub over the area with a fresh slice of white bread. Use dry-cleaning fluid. - Hope this helps! Michelle Melson

Whatever you find to remove lipstick will also remove shoe polish. Chemically they are the same, it's only the colouring and fragrances which differ.

Hi Wendy, Sorry that I don't have any useful advice about the lippy (I'm normally very careful with mine), but I have to congratulate you for one of the best thread titles you're ever likely to see on a genealogical website !!! Rick.

My little girl (2) has just come to me plastered in red lipstick and spray on glitter telling me she is beautiful. Whilst I can't dispute that, I checked the bathroom and the carpet certainly isn't! I am not sure of how to get it out to leave the least stain. Can anybody help, please, pretty please! Regards Abigail
