Warm your clothing iron to the lowest heat setting. Lay a paper towel over the remaining facial wax stuck in the carpet. Set the heated iron on top of the paper towel for three to four seconds at a time to melt the wax into the paper towel. Change to a clean paper towel and continue to use the iron to remove the remaining facial wax until no more wax is absorbed into the towels. - 3). Combine 4 tbsp. of rubbing alcohol with 1 tbsp. of table salt in a bowl. Dip a clean sponge in the alcohol and salt solution and blot the grease stain left by the facial wax.
