Now that the summer sun is finally gracing Britain, people are reaching for their sun cream. One of the most annoying stains, however, is the yellowish stain that a splash of sun cream leaves on clothing.

Don’t worry, there is a way to remove those unsightly grease stains – and it doesn’t require chemicals or vigorous scrubbing. This way, your clothes are guaranteed to be stain-free and undamaged.

According to the experts at Crew Clothing, eucalyptus oil is the ultimate stain remover. First, soak the soiled garment in cold water, then generously apply oil to the stain before machine washing on cold to prevent the stain from setting.

As an all-natural solution, it’s unbeatable because it’s gentle on fabrics. However, there are plenty of other tips and tricks for removing sunscreen that don’t require harsh chemicals.

Lemon juice and vinegar are another effective way to remove the stain, but you need to act quickly. As soon as you spot the stain, apply the juice or vinegar and then sprinkle salt on it to loosen the oil and remove it from the fabric, reports the Mirror.

Allow the solution to sit for at least an hour, or preferably overnight, to prevent the stain from setting.

A mixture of baking soda and dish soap can also be effective. Mix a teaspoon of both with warm water in a spray bottle, then spray it on the stain and blot gently.

With this solution you can also brighten dull white clothes and make them look like new.

With natural stain removers, your light and delicate garments will stay stain-free for longer and look good even in the summer months.
