    have you tried washing up liquid, perhaps pop a small amount on the carpet and mush about with your fingers over the stain and then you can rinse of with a wet cloth?

    have you tried washing up liquid, it's quite good at getting off make up stains. put a small blob on the stain and mush about with your fingers then rinse off with wet cloth?

    I would suggest using baby wipes.

    If it's polyprop, use bleach.

  • Go to YouTube and you'll find loads of vids on how to remove make up stains from carpets. I spilt brown nail varnish on new cream carpet last year and was just about to fill in the insurance claim forms when someone steered me towards YT. Followed the tips I found on several vids there and got the varnish out without anyone ever being able to tell the accident had happened!
