Help, pen on baby annabels face!!!

[Pebblemum]

My neighbour is in need of help.

Her 3yr old has drawn on her new Baby Annabel's face with either felt tip or biro pen. They have tried everything from washing up liquid to bleach but its not shifted.

Has anyone got any advice for her????

you could try nail varnish remover

that's not random - it is a pretty good solvent for many things that are not water soluble

try hair spray

Er, have you tried babywipes? They are good for removing a multitude of things.

Its not as stupid as it sounds. They are good for removing all sorts of things.

Or WD40.

Or Cif (formerly known as Jif). Its slightly abrasive. As is a paste of baking soda and water.

Had a baby born that DD1 gave biro chicken pox. Had completely worn off by the time DD3 played with her. But maybe 8 years is a little too long to wait, granted.

Leave in sunlight and wash repeatedly.

Must remember to read before hitting post button

Have tried nail polish remover and wet wipes, will pass on advice

Nothing worked for my cabbage patch doll Tracey that my little sister drew on with highlighter 16 years ago

have heard that acne cream containing 10% (...) peroxide, works. paste it on. leave it under either nat sunlight or close to bulb, ensure doesn't burn for a couple of hours.

I think I am your neighbour...

Lollipop makes notes on all the tips on the thread.

Ive told my neighbour what everyone has suggested so now we will justhave to wait and see if anything works although it doesnt sound promising.

Arent kids lovely

Another vote for baby wipes. Scary isn't it, the number of different stains that can be removed with baby wipes! ANd we use them on our dcs skin!

hairspray works for biro, spray it on leave for about 10 seconds then wipe off!
