Most cosmetics stains will come away if you dab them with a solution of one tablespoon of borax dissolved in a little hot water and then add half a cup of water.
Sprinkle flour or talc over the stain and leave for several hours. Vacuum up and then blot with a damp cloth, sprinkle with eucalyptus oil.
Without delay pour white wine ove the stained area. Then mop up with towelling before dousing with soda water until all traces of stain has disappeared. Apply soda water immediately if no white wine available.
Spray with soda water, and press towelling into area to absorb all the liquid. If a stain remains, dab at it with a cloth dipped in a solution of one tablespoon of borax and half cup of water.
Spray with soda water, then mop up liquid with towelling. Repeat treatment until all traces of stains have disappeared.
Clean up as much urine as possible with towelling. Then sprinkle liberally with baking soda, with three drops of eucalyptus oil or tea tree essential oil added. Allow this to absorb what urine is left. Then vacuum up, and sponge with white vinegar and water to deodorize further and treat stain.
If the wax is still soft, pack ice cubes around it so that it hardens. Then scrap it away with a knife. To remove any bits, place sheets of absorbent paper on top and use a warm iron to dab at the paper over the stain. Keep turning or replacing the paper as the wax comes away onto it.
