Machine-wash and allow to air dry.<\/li><li>For a liquid foundation stain, get rid of any leftover clumps using a knife and moisten the area. Place a few drops of hydrogen peroxide and work it into the fabric using an old toothbrush until the stain fades. Machine-wash and air dry the towel.<\/li><li>For powder foundation and powder blush stains, treat the site using your preferred liquid laundry detergent. Machine wash and allow to air dry.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For water-based makeup stains, moisten the stained area with water and remove the stain using a bar of white soap. Once the stain fades, rinse the towel, machine-wash, and air dry.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For an oil-based makeup stain, moisten the stained area with water, spray with a solvent for oil and grease stains, and machine-wash using the hottest temperature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[crp]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Restoring_your_white_towels\"><\/span>Restoring your white towels<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to restore life to your white towels, simply pre-soak them in a solution of hot water and a liquid detergent. Depending on the number of towels you are going to treat, you need a capful of your preferred detergent per 2 gallons of water.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Combine and soak your white towels for at least 8 hours. Drain the towels and machine-wash. Check the towels for any lingering stains before placing them in a dryer. If the stains are completely removed, place the towels in the dryer. If traces of the stains linger, pre-treat, and machine-wash again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Consider_alternative_options\"><\/span>Consider alternative options<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If the process of removing stains on your white towels is a tedious task for you, try to keep your options open.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>One is to resist the urge to wash your face using white or light-colored towels. Switch to dark-colored towels that will not readily show the stains.<\/li><li>Another alternative is to use an eye makeup remover and makeup cleansing wipes.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_you_remove_set_in_makeup_stains\"><\/span><strong>How do you remove set in makeup stains?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Over time, makeup stains can set especially on white or light-colored washcloths. In case you want to restore rather than replace a washcloth that has evident makeup stains, allow them to fully saturate for several hours in a laundry booster before washing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OxiClean is a suitable option for this task, but Borax or plain Tide can also work. Dissolve in warm water that is enough to completely submerge the washcloth and let it soak for at least an hour or even overnight. Wash the washcloth as usual. This is enough to restore the overall appearance of your washcloth, minus the makeup stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_I_get_my_towels_white_again\"><\/span><strong>How do I get my towels white again?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can readily whiten towels, whether they are used for special occasions or daily use, making them white is a simple task. Towels can be whitened with simple household products. Simply follow these steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Treat any marks or stains on the towels using hydrogen peroxide. Apply a small amount of hydrogen peroxide over the stained area and let it soak for at least an hour before laundering the towel.<\/li><li>Load the white towels into the washer and add laundry detergent along with \u00bd cup baking soda. The combination of baking soda and detergent will lift the stains out of the fabric and whiten the towels.<\/li><li>Run a wash cycle and add a cup of white vinegar throughout the rinse cycle. The vinegar works by brightening the towels and can deep clean the fabric for the entire washing cycle.<\/li><li>Dry the towels carefully.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can repeat steps 1 up to 4 as needed to get your white towels looking professionally cleaned and whitened.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_do_hotels_get_stains_out_of_towels\"><\/span><strong>How do hotels get stains out of towels?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In most hotels, the washing machine settings are vital in keeping linens and towels fresh and spotless. The washing time is chosen based on the need of the laundry being washed. The linens are washed in a warm setting, not too hot and not too cold.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vinegar is also a useful product that has been used to keep hotel sheets and towels smelling fresh. Once it is used as an alternative to fabric softener, it eliminates bacteria and freshens fabrics. After washing the linens and towels in detergent and vinegar as a fabric softener, the hotel towels and sheets will smell clean and free from stains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Final_thoughts\"><\/span><strong>Final thoughts<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Makeup stains on your white towels can leave them unappealing.
