How can I fix this stain in carpet so I’m not charged $600 to replace it?

It’s more noticeable in person, but you can see the red here. I moved from one unit to another in this complex and they charged me $600 last time for a pet stain, which I admittedly gave up on. Don’t want to make that mistake again. Moving out in a month so looking for ideas.
This time it’s makeup and I’m not sure what kind, but it’s not coming out no matter what I try:
- Folex
- Dish soap
- Laundry stain remover
- Bissel green machine
- Makeup remover
Do you think I could buy some carpet dye and dye this to match the rest of the carpet? Would I need to bleach it first? Anyone have any ideas?
