Lip gloss stain on a suede couch?

Apparently one of my dogs got ahold of a one of my lip glosses and he chewed a hole through it and it leaked all over the brand new suede couch. Any ideas on how to get it out?Lip gloss stain on a suede couch?
Is it microsuede? Thats what I have and I get a lot of stains daily from my dog, husband, and 2 year old. I always keep a box of unscented baby wipes around and whenever I see a stain I gently rub it with the wipe and it dissapears. You could also use hand sanitizer. Make sure you check you couch somewhere for some sort of cleaning code. There should be one somewhere. Here are what the codes mean as to what is appropriate to use for cleaning.





S Clean only with dry cleaning solvent. Do not saturate. Do not use water. Pile fabrics may require brushing to restore appearance. Cushion covers should not be removed and dry cleaned.





SW Spot clean with upholstery shampoo, foam from a mild detergent, or mild dry cleaning solvent. Do not saturate with liquid. Pile fabrics may require brushing to restore appearance. Cushion covers should not be removed and dry cleaned.





W Clean only with water-based shampoo or foam upholstery cleaner. Do not over wet. Do not use solvents to spot clean. Pile fabrics may require brushing to restore appearance. Cushion covers should not be removed and laundered.





WS Spot clean with upholstery shampoo, foam from a mild detergent, or mild dry cleaning solvent. Do not saturate with liquid. Pile fabrics may require brushing to restore appearance. Cushion covers should not be removed and dry cleaned.





X Do not clean with either water- or solvent-based cleaner. Use vacuuming or light brushing only.Lip gloss stain on a suede couch?
If it's REAL suede, please don't use baby wipes!





Call any store that sells suede furniture and ask for professional advice.
