From sticky fizzy pop, to squished chocolate in the carpet or even worse body glitter you or the kids have used when getting ready. 

However, one cleaning product has mastered the art of removing stains and Brits are totally here for it. 

Dr. Beckmann’s Upholstery Stain Remover which cost around £3, depending on which store it is purchased from, has been praised for its strength. 

To help remove tough stains like Vimto, as the vivid colour could ruin a carpet, experts suggest dabbing the affected area with a damp cloth and then tackling with Dr. Beckmann’s Carpet Stain Remover is best to ensure all evidence is removed.

The same for Coca Cola Zero, blue WKD, blue Slush Puppies, Jaeger bombs, Long Island Ice Tea’s, Espresso Martinis, Cosmopolitan cocktails, Oat Milk Flat White Coffee and Tequila Rose. 

They all taste great, but aren’t  worth it when it starts spilling everywhere, which is why experts say it is a must to have this £3 stain remover in your cupboard at all times. 

Chocolate has always been a difficult stain to tackle, luckily there are trusty stain removers on hand to make the job easier with things like Kind Bueno, Choc Ices, Oreo Ice cream and Nutella. 

The remover also helps to banish the dreaded body glitter out of carpets or upholstery. 

A beauty product loved by pop princesses around the world, body glitter was a staple for anyone into pop culture during this time but can be a pain to get out of anything without the right products. 

And who can forget the iconic release of teen comedy blockbuster hit Mean Girls, which saw teenagers immerse themselves in the film’s culture. 

From chocolate bars to chocolate ice cream

The quote “On Wednesdays we wear pink” became a staple saying throughout teenager’s vocabulary to the point where people followed this mantra. 

However, when it comes to washing your favourite pink outfit, make sure to use one of their colour collectors to ensure those bright pink colours don’t run and transfer to your other laundry.

A pencil case full of gel pens is a necessity for any child at school during the early noughties. 

With colours ranging from greens to purples, and smells ranging from apple to orange, gel pens were perfect for making a mark, and experts claim Dr. Beckmann’s stain remover will do just the trick to help remove it. 

Sweets and bubblegum

Tippex is another pencil case staple, this iconic correction fluid is ironically well-known for causing some of the most hard-to-remove stains – at least it does the job. 

Bubble gum is one of the most recognised sweets around the world, but its sticky qualities make it a nightmare to remove! Always wait for the gum to dry before removing, place a few ice cubes over the affected area and scrape away the remaining gum. 

And whether it’s for a gradual glow or an instant fix, fake tan is known for causing some of the worst stains, especially on furniture. 

Lastly but not least, mud.

Resist the temptation to wipe at the stain, let it dry and then scrape off the dried dirt, before washing the clothes as normal. 

Dr. Beckmann spokesperson, Susan Fermor said: “It’s always interesting to look back over the years and see how the habits, interests and tastes of the nation have changed over time.

“Certain products like chocolate, coffee and sweets will always be loved, but the mess that is often left behind is not so lovable. 

“Dr. Beckmann has been trusted for decades, ensuring that people can enjoy themselves without having to worry about any unexpected spills or stains, and we’ll continue to do so for the next twenty years and beyond.”
