    Wear the shirt in the shower, pour liquid soap all over the shirt and rub it in…

    1. Use non-acetone nail polish remover. Nail polish remover not only works for your nails, but it can also work on clothing. Afterwards you may want to use detregent and warm water to insure that the stain is completely off. This isn't the most preferred method.

    2. Use hydrogen peroxide and water. If you have a white or colorfast shirt, this can be used if the nail polish doesn't seem to work. Mix half hydrogen peroxide and half water. For the best result leave it in the sun for a few hours and keep it moist with the hydrogen peroxide and water mix. [1]
    Spray with hairspray and water. Tamp or dab after applying using the edge of the spoon. [2]

    3. Give the shirt to your local dry cleaner. They will most likely help you take out that stain on the shirt. It gives a lower chance of damaging your shirt.

    Try hairspay. Spray it then rub the hairspray off with warm soapy water. Then try to wash it. If it is still pretty light try tide to go they work miracles.
