Stains on leather tip share

We bought a cream leather suite, and my darling son decided to take a biro to it :mad:

After calling several specialists who were stating we'd have to replace the leather, I accidentally sprayed some hairspray on it, sat on the can

Well it gets ink out, and since then found it gets many stains out

As always must wash off immediately and not rub too hard, and of course use it at your own risk, maybe test a small area first, but worked a treat for me :T I now keep a very cheap can handy

My daughter decided to invest in a really nice leather handbag, which she would keep for years. It cost £60, a lot of her savings, and is really beautiful.
She used it to take to college and on the second day a pen lost its cap and leaked in the bag. Now there is an ink stain on the bottom, about at big as a 5p coin.

I've googled remedies and right now there is toothpaste on it. I also found this:

This is the truth. And, I hope it helps someone. I purchased a new Cole Haan leather bag and TODAY was my first time carrying it. I just arrived home about 1 hour ago and noticed a black ink spot. First of all toothpaste did not work. However, I used the walgreens brand hand sanitizer and it REMOVE THE INK COMPLETLY in three different spots on the same handbag/purse.

I'm not sure if that was a US or UK site; if it is UK what is this walgreens stuff, and where can I get it?
