Help! My child colored my new sheets with lipstick -?

My baby decided that my new sheets would look better if she colored them with my lip0stick - while I agree the shade is lovely. I would rather have my sheets clean. I trieed washing the sheets, washing after pre-treatment with shout, but no luck. Can anyone suggest what worked for them?Help! My child colored my new sheets with lipstick -?
As stated above, do the iron trick. What is left is usually a grease spot. Use a good dish detergent to remove the grease spot, rinse thoroughly and then launder. If it is still there, put 1/4 cup of white vinegar in with the laundry.

Rub some glycerin on that area the let it dry for half an hour then wash it off with hot water.And the stain will vanish.
Place the sheets on the ironing board, place brown paper or the like over the top and iron them with a fairly hot iron, the lipstick is made up of a high percentage of wax and the wax will be absorbed by the paper when it melts with the hot iron.
Wash your sheet with warm water and detergent soap.
First place paper toweling under the sheet where the stain is, and then place another paper towel on top of the stain. Iron the area and any waxy substance should come out. If there is still a stain left after removing the wax, spray the area with hairspray, let it sit for a few minutes then wash as you would normally. It may take a few applications of hairspray, but it should work.
Oxyclean if you haven't dried them in the drier yet....
