"White Lines" might be the title of a fantastic Grandmaster Flash bop, but it's not exactly something we love seeing on our clothes. Indeed, while many of us depend on our deodorant for sweat and odor relief, it's not exactly something we love showing off to the world in most cases — but the residue it leaves can also be super difficult to remove once it's on our clothing. Thankfully, there's a simple, efficient and affordable solution: the Hollywood Fashion Secrets Deodorant Removing Sponge.

This wonder wipe eliminates stubborn stains from antiperspirant, makeup and more with very little elbow grease — and no water.

Hollywood Fashion Secrets is known for its plethora of style solutions, including their popular fashion tape, belt alternatives and silicone cover-ups. But their Deodorant Removing Sponge caught our eye because it solves a problem that can be frustrating and time-consuming. It basically functions as a Magic Eraser, but for textiles. Mr. Clean, eat your heart out!

It requires no cleaning fluids or even water, which makes it that much more convenient and portable. Simply rub the dry sponge against any deodorant stains, and after a few quick passes the marks will vanish. And it's not just for deodorant, either — it also makes quick work of spilled makeup powder and will even gather up stuck-on pet hair with ease. It's ideal for just throwing in your purse or travel bag for taking care of on-the-go mishaps, and it's safe on most clothing too. Best of all, it's reusable, so you're getting plenty of bang for your buck.

A plethora of Amazon reviewers have already discovered the usefulness of the Deodorant Removing Sponge:

"It revitalizes clothes that have been soiled with years of deodorant stains," gushed a reviewer. "I cleaned my scrubs, black T-shirts and several other items, and I couldn't be happier."

Another found a particularly interesting use for the sponge: "Works great for removing the white residue of deodorant and even better for removing a toddler’s Cheeto-dust fingerprints from clothing!"

Fans rave that they even save money with help from the practical pick. "Removed a dried [anti-perspirant] spot on formal dress so I did not have to pay the cleaners to do it for me," enthused one. "Highly recommend."

"Purchased as a gift for my significant other who is always throwing away shirts that are stained by deodorant," agreed related this writer. "It has saved me on multiple occasions, with lots of outfits, and comes in handy to have in my purse or any outfit change in the day. Works exactly as promised — use dry, no need to wet."

It's your choice: Spend $10 on one of these, or allow deodorant stains to take you to the cleaners ... in more ways than one.
