Hi ladies I could use some help.
Apparently I forgot to check pockets before doing the laundry and once I pulled the clothes out of the dryer I realized there was a pink marker in someones pocket. The marker is now all over the inside of my dryer and all over the clothes. Is there any way to get marker out of clothing? My main concern is a work shirt of my husbands. Unfortunately it's not white...it's green so there is no hope in getting it out by bleaching it. Your advice and help is much appreciated.

Hi S.,
Sol-u-Mel from Melaleuca. I've been a customer for 13 years and help others become customers, I swear by it.

Check for an earache. I had chronic earaches as a baby and nobody knew it for a long, long time. Earaches can be worse at night. Just a thought. Good Luck.

Sol-u-mel! It is a natural melaleuca oil based cleaner and if you soak a cotton ball and then dab the stain it will come right out! I even got permanent marker off my sons dresser without taking off the wood finish!

WD-40! You would be amazed at how many stains WD-40 will remove. Totally saturate the stain with WD-40, then rewash. Another thing that works is toothpaste. Use the plain white paste, not the gel. This usually works best on a fresh stain but will also work on set marker stains.
