1. Lipstick contains wax, oils, fats, emollients (structure products) and a pigment. (Colour)
2. It is important to remove the structure products and the pigment to avoid leaving a permanent dye stain.
3. apply a solvent such as methylated spirits or dry cleaning fluid. 
4. Blot with a colour fast towel and repeat as long as there is improvement.
5. Cease treatment if you are not removing the pigment and call a professional. See note below.
