This is extremely serious, mascara could sting and blind an eye....

It depends on the fibers of the carpet and quality of mascara ( water proof etc.) magic earaser works very well.

Eye Makeup remover should work. Mary Kay has a great product.

We had some all over the upholstered seat of our car and baby wipes took it right off. Try that first?

My daughter got into my makeup, and it was all over the wall and my bed--and of course her face. I guess i should be glad she knows where it goes. If this is a waterproof makeup, try using makeup remover and then a carpet shampoo. Depending on the type of carpet, it should at least lighten enough to barely see it. If not waterproof, just some carpet shampoo should do the trick, though may need to leave on for a few minutes to work it out. If those don't work, you could try Goo Gone but try it on part of the carpet first to make sure no problems happen. Mine was waterproof and the Magic Erasers did nothing to get it out.

I have a product which not only would get out the mascara but also nail polish (heaven forbid someone got that on the carpet), perm marker on walls and believe it or not the product is even safe enough for your clothes. I call it my miracle cleaner. Sure wish we lived closer as I would bring you over some.
