Got Lipstick Stains? Remove ?Em!

In 1930, a cow name Nellie became the first in her species to fly in a plane. During the flight, she was milked to provide refreshment for the passengers. Milk has other uses, too. Taking lipstick stains out of white cotton is just one of them. It really works. Here's our secret Carey Brothers formula: Mix three equal parts of household laundry bleach, warm tap water, and milk. Put it in a spray bottle, spritz the stain, scrub it with an old toothbrush. Presto-white-o, the lipstick is gone! Don't use this on anything but whites, though, because it will discolor dyed fabrics. And that's the On The House tip for today.
