How to Handle Spills from Coffee to Costume Mishaps

Autumn brings a swirl of cozy coffee runs, pumpkin-spice everything, and festive Halloween chaos. Between juggling workdays, weekend gatherings, and costume prep, spills are almost guaranteed—from the first sip that escapes your cup to the glitter explosion that follows a craft project gone wild.

The good news? None of it has to derail your day (or your outfit). Here’s your no-panic guide to tackling fall’s most common messes—with a few smart, plant-powered tricks up your sleeve.

Life’s Little Spills

Let’s face it—fall festivities are full of joy and a fair share of stains. Coffee on the car seat during a chilly morning commute? Check. Apple cider splashes mid-toast at the harvest party? Check. Make up smudges or sticky costume glue during Halloween prep? Check.

Instead of reaching for harsh cleaners or giving up on that favorite shirt, try these quick and easy methods to restore calm—and cleanliness—when chaos strikes.

The Most Common Fall + Halloween Spills

Coffee Stains

Coffee loves fabric—but not in the way you’d like. The trick is to act fast.

  • Blot, don’t rub. Use a clean cloth or paper towel to lift liquid without spreading it.

  • Pre-treat. Spray with Puracy Stain Remover or apply a small amount directly.

  • Let it sit. Give the plant-based enzymes a few minutes to break down tannins and proteins.

  • Rinse and wash. Rinse in cool water, then wash with Puracy Laundry Detergent. 

Party Drinks (Wine, Cider, Soda)

Colorful beverages are festive—but also notorious for staining.

  • For fresh spills, blot immediately to absorb excess liquid.

  • Pre-treat with Stain Remover Spray, gently agitate with a soft cloth, and rinse.

  • Follow with our laundry detergent to erase any lingering pigment.

Makeup Smudges

Foundation fingerprints, lipstick streaks, or face paint mishaps—sound familiar? Try our  Puracy Stain Remover Roller Pen

  • Remove excess liquid or debris with a clean cloth or paper towel.

  • Gently roll the tip over the stain to release solution. 

  • Blot with a clean cloth to lift the stain. 

  • Wash at the next opportunity for best results. 

Glitter & Costume Glue

Glitter seems to defy gravity—and every vacuum ever invented.

  • Wipe surfaces with a damp microfiber cloth and Puracy Surface Cleaner.

  • For glue residue, soften with warm water and wipe gently.

  • Finish with a rinse or damp wipe to leave surfaces clean.
