You could use unscented baby wipes to wipe the ear pads clean if they don't come off. Make sure they do not contain any skin conditioner like aloe.

If the ear pads do come off you can clean them in water with a small amount of liquid laundry soap, let them air dry and then put them back on the headset.

Option 1: Hand clean with soap and water
Option 2: Ask you mom/sister* to wash with their "delicates", usually in a special cloth bag and special washer/dryer setting. Request no perfume or extra stuff.

*Make sure they are not mad at you or likely to prank you

I would make sure it was as mild as possible and make sure it gets diluted in the water well. You may need to use very water to get it to dissolve if its a powder. If you do use hot water to get the soap to dissolve then give it 15 minutes to cool so you can comfortably put your hands in the water before cleaning your ear pieces.

Just a reminded make sure the headset its self does not get any water on it or you'll be right back here asking us whats the best replacement for the unit.

if they are old and and really bad (such as being hard from sweat) you could just get replacement pads... http://headphonespares.sennheiser.co.uk/hifi-tv-headphones/hd-451

not sure how well the foam will do in hot water or dryer. if you do wash them i'd do it by hand. honestly a little febreeze or similar would likely be fine instead.
