How to Get Stains out of “My Husband is a Hottie” T-Shirt
Okay, that’s really bad grammar and bad parallelism, so let me try that again: I love cooking and looking good.
And as I’ve tried to impress on this blog a lot, we SHOULD be looking our best for our husbands, not for random strangers we see in the grocery store. Which is why about 15 minutes before my husband is coming home, I try to put on some makeup and a decent shirt, if I’m not already wearing something decent.
Here’s where the cooking comes in. That means that I’m usually wearing something nice when I’m cooking, and I usually forget to wear an apron, too. And I can’t tell you the number of nice shirts (including some I wear for speaking!) that I have wrecked with grease stains.
So when BlogHer asked me to partner with them to review and test Resolve Gold® In-Wash Stain Remover Powder, I said “sure!”–especially when they said it got out grease.
It’s available in powder and gel form, and can be bought virtually anywhere, like Wal-mart or other big retailers.
So here’s what I did. I took this awesome T-shirt that my friend Kathi Lipp sent me that said, “My husband is a hottie.” Now, I didn’t want to wreck that T-shirt, because my husband IS a hottie, but I decided to trust Resolve with it.
And I poured way too much olive oil on it, and some tea (because I drink tea a lot, too), and some hot sauce. That ought to do it.
Seriously, I put way too much oil on. And too much tea.
Then I took the Resolve Gold In-Wash®, and just mixed about half a scoop with maybe 1/3 cup of water, and soaked the stains for around 30 seconds.
The paste bubbles a bit (that’s the Oxi-Action), and seriously–it makes your hands super soft, too! Unlike other stain removers, it’s honestly not harsh on your skin (or on the clothing material). It’s really ecologically friendly.
Then you just rinse it, and put about another scoop in the washing machine and wash as usual. It’s easy peasy!
And you know what? It got it all out, too. Even the huge amount of oil!
So now I can wear the “my husband is a hottie” shirt and I haven’t wrecked anything at all. It makes me think that I may go back and try some of the blouses I stained ages ago to see if it could try to get the stains out (it says it works on stains as old as 7 days, but it’s worth a try!).
Whether it’s grass or blood or coffee or oil, or anything else that you spill, Resolve Gold In-Wash® really does work. And the bubbling is kind of fun.
So thanks for letting me try it! And thanks for not wrecking my favourite T-shirt, too.
