    Per google:
    gently dab to remove bulk of lipstick.
    dab (not scrub) a dilute solution of woolite and warm water. -- I would assume 1 part woolite to 10 parts water.press firmly with dry tissue to remove most of water.
    If possible, cover with cornmeal and leave overnight.
    Finally, clean area with saddle soap or other leather cleaner/conditioner.

    From what I read it is very difficult to completely remove lipstick -- especially if a dark shade.

    good luck!!

    Seriously? It wouldn’t damage or stain the leather?

    do not put brake clean on your leather. it might get the stain off (probably will) but it could damage your leather. only use brake clean on metal, plastic and other hard surfaces

    buy some high strength leather cleaner if it doesn't come off with regular methods. you could even go to a professional clothing cleaning business and ask them how they'd get lipstick off a leather and use that same technique on your seats

    Haha. I was going to laugh at you and call you an idiot but that stuff is frowned upon in “todays” forums! Thanks for all the feedback.
