Give Your Bras A Much Needed Refresh With This Kitchen Staple
By MADISEN SWENSON
Washing your bras alongside other clothing in the washing machine often isn’t enough to keep them in tip-top shape. To fully refresh them, hand wash the items with baking soda.
Fill a bowl or sink basin with warm water, a dash of laundry detergent, and a tablespoon of baking soda. Submerge the bras, then swish them around to ensure the liquid soaks in.
To spot-treat stains and eliminate lingering odors, massage baking soda directly into the fabric. After soaking for at least 45 minutes, rinse them thoroughly under cool water.
You can also add a few tablespoons of baking soda to your washer when running a load to clean your bras that way, but keep in mind the machine can cause pilling and loss of shape.
