Grease on new jeans-pic attached

Help! Got a couple of spots of grease on my new jeans today thanks to one of my little darlings.
I put fairy washing up liquid and water on it and dried it. And THIS happened!! Not the result I'd hoped for.
Any expert advice out there would be very welcome

Face wipes. They're great for getting grease out.

Rub fairy liquid into the stain then run very very hot water through the stained area. Then into wash at 40 degrees.

I spilt olive oil down a cashmere jumper recently and grabbed my dd's can of dry shampoo in desperation. I covered it fairly liberally and then washed it - it did the job!

I use green household soap to deal with grease stains on clothes. I buy it from morrisons, it's dirt cheap and lasts forever. I rub it on the damp stain before washing.

To get grease out of your clothes i would recommend Elbow Grease This is a multipurpose cleaner and will be strong enough to remove any grease stains from clothing without damaging the clothes.
