Panic - lots of lipstick on the carpet - how do i get it off?

Anything greasy....Scrape off any residues with blunt knife...any left apply Surgical spirit with a piece of cotton wool....

Place two layers of kitchen roll on the top of the area and massage with domed part of a dessert spoon...this will release the grease and absorb it back into the kitchen roll rather than pushing it deeper into the carpet

Have fun

You've reminded me of when DGS was about two & a half, kittylester , he proudly announced that he'd drawn a track ! He had drawn his track with thick black crayon , all over my beige carpet ! Nothing would remove it, even the expert sent by the insurance company couldn't get rid of it. Thus a new carpet .

E how is good too! Once managed to get ball point pen off a damask tablecloth - someone else's

I bought a selection of stain devils from Morrissons after getting a blob of mascara on the S.O.'s new curtains [make up mirror was on the window sill .

there is a site called wikihow or something like that. They have solutions for practically everything. May be worth a try. I hope you can get it off.

Asked Granny and probably resigned ourselves to a permanently marked carpet!

I looked at the internet too loopy and was looking in the back of the under the sink cupboard looking for any of the above when I came across a spray called De-solv-it! It was brilliant.

Panic over - thank you all!!

Quick look on Internet suggests use a stain remover, acetone nail varnish or hairspray but test a small area first. Basically needs alcohol based product, wouldn't think baby wipes would do it.

I don't know hun. I hope it comes off.

This is the best I can offer:
