Nail polish might give the extra colour you want, but it’s a nightmare to remove if it gets on your clothes. There’s no need for harsh chemicals with these tips from Tide on how to get rid of nail polish stains safely.

    • Remove Excess:

      Scrape off any excess from the garment before rinsing under cold, running water. The higher the water pressure, the easier it will be to remove.
    Scrape off any excess from the garment
    • Pre-treat:

      Using a bucket, a sink or a bowl, create a soaking solution by adding 28 grams or 1 ½ tablespoons of Tide Coldwater Clean Liquid per 4 litres of cold water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 5 minutes, weighting the item with a white towel to keep it totally submerged.
    Create a soaking solution
    • Dose:

      You can use the cap to ensure you use the right amount of laundry detergent. Just fill it with the correct dose of Tide laundry detergent, and pour it into the laundry detergent dispenser if you have an HE washing machine, or directly into the drum before loading the clothes if you have a non-HE washing machine.
    Dose the right amount of detergent
    • Load:

      Without rinsing off the detergent, place the garment into the washer with other items. Leaving the detergent on the stain will give your wash that extra boost of cleaning power.
    Load the garment into the washer
    • Wash:

      Wash on the usual cycle, on the hottest wash temperature indicated. Always check the instructions on the garment’s laundry symbols.
    Unload
    • Unload:

      When the cycle is complete, unload the garments immediately.
    Unload

If the stain persists after washing, repeat the previous steps before tossing in the dryer, as drying will set the stain.

Effective Stain Removal on a Variety of Stains

Your beauty routine may consist of various creams and make up, but chances are, you’re likely to encounter other stains, too. Looking beautiful may come at a cost, but there is no reason you should have unsightly stains from lipstick or hair dye. 

For nail polish stain removal, or any other cosmetic product, you can trust Tide to make your garments look as beautiful as you do. Look your best with a little help from Tide.
