1. Ease the grease:

Scrape off the grease using a butter knife. Place the stained shirt on a white paper towel. Use half teaspoonful liquid dish wash to smoothen the grease, and leave it for a minute. Wash off with detergent and warm water.

2. No more yellow:

Use an enzyme pre-soak product with warm water, and soak that shirt with the yellow underarm marks. Rub the stained area with white vinegar and wash with lukewarm water.

3. Get that ink off:

Use a generous amount of hair spray and leave it for a few minutes. Then, wash it off.

4. Make it whiter:

Soak your shirt in lukewarm water and oxygen bleach for a day. Rinse off with plain water and a spoon of vinegar. Then, wash with hot water and chlorine bleach.

To clean your white cotton socks and retain freshness, boil them in a saucepan with lemon slices.
