General Washing Tips
1. Sorting is the Basic : Sort your laundry by color, fabric and washing instructions to keep colors and fabrics beautiful for longer.
2. Choose the Right Temperature : For most garments, 30-40 degrees Celsius is ideal. Hot washing is only necessary for very dirty laundry and certain fabrics.
3. Use of Detergent : Use the recommended amount of detergent. Too much detergent can leave a residue, too little can result in a less clean wash.
4. Don't fill the washing machine completely : Use the rule of thumb: Don't fill the washing machine more than 75%.
Specific Washing Tips
5. Stubborn Stains : Treat stains immediately. Use our FashFresh Laundry Pods which are specially designed to remove stubborn stains.
6. Wash Inside Out : Wash clothes inside out to reduce wear and color fading.
7. Delicate Fabrics : Use laundry bags for delicate fabrics such as lingerie and silk to protect them during washing.
Materials and Fabrics
8. Jeans : Turn jeans inside out and wash in cold water to protect the color and fibers. Do not wash them too often to keep the fabric and color beautiful longer.
9. Wool Clothing : Preferably wash wool by hand in cold water with a special wool detergent. Do not wring wool; gently squeeze out the water and lay flat to dry.
10. Sportswear : Wash sportswear as soon as possible after use to prevent odors and bacteria. Do not use fabric softener and let sportswear air dry.
Maintenance and Care
11. Fabric Softener Use : Use fabric softener sparingly; too much can leave a greasy residue on clothing. Use white vinegar as a natural fabric softener; it softens and removes odors.
12. Removing Chewing Gum : Place the garment in the freezer. Once the chewing gum is hard, it can be easily broken off and removed.
13. Removing Oil Stains : Sprinkle baby powder on the oil stain and let it sit for a few hours. Then brush off the powder and wash as usual.

Drying and Ironing Tips
15. Dryer Tips : Use dryer balls or a rolled up sock to speed up drying time and reduce static. Remove clothes from the dryer immediately after the drying cycle is complete to prevent wrinkles.
16. Ironing : Use a steam iron for stubborn wrinkles and an ironing cloth for delicate fabrics to avoid burn marks.
