The trick to minimizing the stain (with caution)
A frequently mentioned method is to use clear alcohol (like vodka or gin) to help even out the discolored area.
How to do it safely (with exact quantities)
Pre-rinsing (mandatory)
Rinse the stained area under running cold or lukewarm water for at least 2 minutes, gently massaging the fabric between your fingers to remove all traces of bleach.
Squeeze out excess water gently without wringing.
Working conditions
Set up in a well-ventilated area (open window). Lay the garment flat on a clean towel.
Amount of alcohol
Pour 5 ml of clear alcohol (approximately 1 teaspoon) into a small container.
Use a cotton pad or cotton ball.
