Tips to keep your lingerie looking its best:
We suggest all new garments be pre-washed prior to wearing. Removing sizing and other manufacturing residues from will assist in smoothing seams and avoiding skin sensitivity to chemicals that may be in the fabric.
Often it is the sizing in lace that will cause the scratchiness some women experience. Our process for this is:
- Soak new bras in one gallon warm water and 3/4 cup white vinegar for several hours or even overnight.
- Rinse well and air dry.
Sometimes it takes a few wearings and washings to truly make it feel like a great friend - kinda like breaking in new shoes!
We recommend that you alternate wearing your bras, allowing them a day of rest between wearings. Wash every third wearing.
Hand washing is always preferred for your lingerie.
- Use 1 tablespoon lingerie washing soap in a gallon of tepid water.
- Soak the garments and agitate. If required, gently use a soft bristled brush to loosen any deodorant or perspiration marks.
- Rinse thoroughly.
- We recommend a little white vinegar in the rinse water to remove any soap residue.
If machine washing, use the delicate cycle, warm water and 1/4 cup of lingerie washing soap. Always wash garments in a lingerie bag.
Air drying is recommended to prolong the life of your lingerie. Never use a dryer as the heat will damage the elasticity of the garment.
Most of all, ENJOY your new bra!
