White skirt and trousers turned yellow

You could try Dylon colour run remover which bleaches most things out, but make sure you have washed out all the bleach, lemon juice etc first.
I fear they might be doomed though.

Peonyrose, try hanging them out in the sun, or, better still, lay them down on a table or sheet with the yellow areas exposed and leave them there for the day.

Sunlight has amazing bleaching/whitening qualities, especially on yellow or orange food stains (kids clothes) so it's always worth a try.

Talking of Dylon, you could dye them a darker colour which might not show up the stain so much.

Or just wash them a few more times with a generous addition of Vanish.

Hang them out in the sun.

I got turmeric stains out of a pale blue t-shirt by lying it out in the sunshine. It's worth a try.

Use Ace for whites. Works every time.

I had this problem, I soaked a white linen shirt in white vinegar and it worked. I have now found a very good sunscreen that doesn't stain, not sure if I can name it but here goes, Ul...sun.

I've just returned from holiday and several of my favourite items of white clothing were stained yellow.
I've tried vanish, bleach and colour remover with no joy.
Last resort I soaked them in a white vinegar solution and they are much better, definitely wearable again.
I'm going to follow the advice of previous posters and leave them in full sun to (hopefully)get rid of the last slight traces of staining. good luck.

I find washing by hand in that long lasting green washing up liquid that's allegedly kind to your hands (is it heck? ), rinsing well and hanging in direct sunlight best solution for stains. In last weekend's sunshine I eventually managed to get stains out of white linen tablecloth used at Christmas, 2 previous washes using Ace hadn't worked but the washing up liquid and sunshine worked like a dream.

I had some white trousers which got stained with self tan. Bleach (?) turned the stain yellow. I just kept washing them every time I did a white wash and eventually it wasn't noticeable. I've also heard Milton or denture cleaners recommended!

Have you tried anointing the stains liberally with washing-up liquid then leaving the clothes to dry completely before washing them on as hot a cycle as possible?

I have removed all sorts of stains from cotton clothes using this trick. Everything from elderberry stains to the stains you are coping with.

This happened to our crisp white sheets when friends using an Australian suncream were staying. You could almost see the shape of the body on the sheet. I tried everything, but the greasy residue was still yellow. The nearest I got to success was with white wine vinegar

Thankyou everyone, tried the vinegar, the Milton, Vanish and bleach, now I have binned the two items as I was becoming a trifle obsessed, determined not to give up.

You’re probably right in blaming sun lotion. I ruined the white trim on a swimming costume when lashing on sun cream... lesson learned the hard way!

hydrogen peroxide ( can buy in a chemist) and baking soda mixed to a watery paste will remove almost any stain, including dried up blood

Try washing with a dish soap. Cover the staining with dish soap to get out the grease, then launder and hang to dry in full sun.

Sun cream is really hard to remove

Try "Oxy-Clean" powder....Order it through Amazon if it's not available locally.

Measure a scoopful (plastic scoop is included in the box) into a bucket of very hot water (approx 4 gallons) and mix thoroughly. Soak the items in the hot Oxy-Clean solution for at least three hours. You may want to poke/push down items every so often to keep them submerged because they often float to the top.

Remove the items after a few hours then hand or machine wash with regular detergent.

Oxy clean has several products....I've included a link for the Oxy Clean powder I use......

It's a shame that Peonyrose didn't try the sunshine before she threw the items away. It's free, environmentally friendly and it works! I left a t-shirt outside for a week in the sun, wind and rain then washed it again and it was perfect.
