Stains on my awesome shirts

Damn. I have 2 shirts that have stains on them. 1 is uh... lipstick and the other is probably due to antiperspirant I was wearing when it was 36 degrees celcius last week.

I'm trying vinegar and water at the moment but wanted to know if you have had any advice regarding this matter?

    I've used a solution of 1 tsp Hydrogen Peroxide, 2 tsp dish soap, and 2 cups of clean, warm water to get wine stains out of various shirts and carpets, but I'd test it on a rag first to ensure it won't bleach your material. Most of the shirts I worked on where gray or light blue.

    Yeah I thought about Hydrogen Peroxide but I really don't want to ruin the shirt.

    1's light blue but it has a bit of shine. The other is white with a pattern.

    Have you tried any of the advert. brands? The color safe oxy-clean, Clorox color wipes, etc? A lot of them do work as shown on TV.

    Shout! has gotten out any stain I've ever thrown at it, just spray it on, rub it into the stain, let it sit for a while then wash it.

    I was suggested to use the dual action shout by my boss who's a mother of 2 so I got that.

    I'll give you the results.

    Damn, this stuff rocks.

    Took out the lipstick and you can barely see the antipersperant stain now. One more wash should do the trick.
