clean up make-up foundation - anyone?

my fiance just messed up my car without even knowing. She used the passenger sun-visor and the mirror to doll her-self up for clubbing and didn't realize that her fingers were full of make-up foundation.

Now some of that stuff is smeared onto the sun-visor and is visible, and it bugging the hell out of me.

the sun-visor is cloth i believe,

does anyone know how to clean it?

Have you tried blotting it with a MF with a diluted all purpose cleaner?

i'm a makeup artist and i have this problem, but it is due to containers not being closed. ask her if she has some eyemakeup remover. if so, be sure it is hypo-allergenic(it would say so on the container) this is good because it contains natural plant-based emollients and NOT mineral oil. the mineral oil will stain your visor. blot with the microfiber towel. it will remove EVERY TRACE of the makeup and very quickly.

just remember, you want to apply the makeup remover directly on the stain, do not rub, blot. should do the trick. also, keep a ziplock bag of baby wipes in the car for your fiance. she will think it is so sweet of you to do for her, but we all know it's really for the car's safety! LOL!
