How to Properly Wash Your Lingerie

How to Wash Lingerie

Step 1: Read the Care Label

Before washing your lingerie, always check the care label for specific instructions. Different fabrics and styles may require different care methods. Pay attention to any temperature restrictions or special washing instructions.

 

 

Step 2: Hand Wash or Use a Delicate Cycle

To protect the delicate fabrics and intricate details of your lingerie, it is recommended to hand wash them. Fill a basin or sink with lukewarm water and add a gentle lingerie detergent. Gently agitate the lingerie in the water, ensuring all areas are cleaned. Avoid scrubbing or twisting the fabric, as this can cause damage.

 

 

Step 3: Rinse Thoroughly

After washing, rinse your lingerie thoroughly to remove any soap residue. Use cool water and gently squeeze the excess water out. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric, as this can cause stretching or damage.

 

 

Step 4: Drying

When it comes to drying your lingerie, avoid using a dryer as the heat can damage the delicate fabrics. Instead, gently squeeze out any excess water and lay the lingerie flat on a clean towel. Roll the towel up, pressing gently to absorb more moisture. Then, reshape the lingerie and lay it flat on a drying rack or clean towel to air dry.

 

 

Step 5: Storage

Store your lingerie in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or crushing the garments, as this can cause wrinkles and damage. Consider using lingerie bags or separate compartments to keep items organized and protected.
