Last night after Nik got home from work, I suggested that I go pick up Little Ceaser's pizza for us to eat. When I got home, Nik was a little irritated and said the boys some how found Savannah's make-up and drew with her bright PINK lipstick all over our playroom carpet. And it wasn't just a little spot. It was a span of about a nice 2' x 2' square. I really thought this was something that I wouldn't ever have to deal with, but too late.... I would have posted a picture, but I didn't exactly find it funny.
I got out our carpet stain remover and that didn't seem to help much. So I got online and found out that Goo Gone and WD-40 are great solutions for removing lipstick in carpet. So I tried both. I think the WD-40 worked the best, but there is still a faint pink mess on the floor. The carpet itself is sort of a mauve color anyway, so that helped. I think I would have cried if it would have been on our new white carpet in the basement. Anyways, it didn't all come out, but it is definately better than it looked at first. That little Carter is a stinker.

I don't know if it would work on the carpet, but Zout takes out all of the stains on my kids' clothes.
Still think it's funny that you now like pizza. :)
I have used Oxy Clean on EVERYTHING, including lipstick, and it has normally taken everything out. I mix it pretty strong...for carpets i make it into a runny paste. I just buy the generic brand from dollar General. Sara
