Act Quickly and Blot the Stain
Scrape off any excess lip liner with a dull knife or spoon. Then blot the stain with a clean white cloth to lift as much color as possible. Avoid rubbing, which can push the pigment deeper into the carpet fibers.
Use a Gentle Cleaning Solution
Mix a small amount of dish soap with warm water. Apply the solution to the stain using a clean cloth, working from the outside of the stain inward. Blot gently and repeat until the color fades. For stubborn marks, a specialist carpet cleaner can provide targeted guidance.
Rinse, Dry, and Check the Results
Rinse the area with a cloth dampened with plain water to remove soap residue. Blot dry with a towel and place a heavy object over the spot to prevent staining. If the mark remains, test a commercial stain remover on a hidden area first.
