Really annoying! It's ruined the look of them, and is ruining any chances I had of ebay-ing when she's outgrown them...tried non-bio persil and vanish crystal white but neither has worked :(

Does anybody know of any product that will do the job? And is there a brand of suncream that doesn't stain?

Thanks!

I posted about this a while back... I'm sorry but nothing is going to shift it. Hanging out to dry in bright sunlight might fade it a little, but it'll still be there.

Try fairy liquid to hand wash first then wash in machine.

Nivea clear doesn't stain. Switched to this as I was fed up of ds t shirts staining too.

surf bio powder to soak over night then just a normal wash, I find it shifts most stains including the suncream. Also if you wait a little while before you put clothes on to let the cream soak in cuts back on the staining!
