Is there anything that will get it out? Bloody massive bust got in the way again.

vanish liquid. let it soak in for a bit then bung it in the wash. fingers crossed....

Vanish should work, my big tip for new clothes is wash before wearing the first time and then stains seem less staining

I read the tital as Oily blob in a new top! Fort you were talking about someone you didn't like!!!!

Stop boasting about your bloody massive bust please. The only reason you started this thread was so you could tell everyone that you've got huge boobies, so I have no sympathy with your new top dilemma!

Yes, get vanish. I just took 2 tops with grease stains to ex MIL's (pathetic I know!) and she used Vanish and washed them a couple of times - I can barely get around to washing something once! - and the marks came out.

Loving the title HRH

Have you tried, putting a layer of brown paper on the top, and then a towel over the top and ironing the grease out?

ScummyMummy · 15/10/2005 13:50

Thanks all. I think I'd better get a supply of vanish in for the future. Meanwhile there's good news on the top front- I rang mother in law and she said fairy liquid so I tried it and it's gone!

Try a lower neckline

Cheeky, mi and rhubarb! Clumsiness just doesn't mix well with a shelf like bosoom and they're not even fashionable. Even Jordan's having a reduction, you know.

yep, you don't need vanish for that, washing up liquid is brill - a tip from my MIL too! I put a bit on food/oily stains etc before putting clothes in the dirty basket, then when I wash the stains invariably disappear.
