In Lucky Magazine, designer Nicholas Kunz mentioned that Eucalyptus Essential Oil is well, essential to removing pen marks from clothing.
Lucky magazine says:
Put on gloves. Gently dab a small amount of the oil on the stain with a soft cloth. Let it sit for a few seconds and then delicately blot and rub until the stain is gone. Launder as usual. This works best on cottons and light woven fabrics; never try it on leather.
If anyone tries it and it works, let me know.
Another trick that works really well : milk ! Put the clothing part that has ink into a little bowl with some milk in it, let it sit there for a couple of minutes, and then wash. Works like magic !
WOW! I really needed to know this, my 5 year old daughter just marked all over her PJ bottoms with an ink pen!!! Great timing!

Thanks for the tip Carol. I wonder if all hairsprays work or just a certain type?
Hair spray works too.
What a great tip! I wonder if it’ll work after already washing the stain. I need to go find the pants that ds#2 had marked up….
