Washcare Tips for your Sexy Lingerie
Washcare Tips for Your Sexy Lingerie
To keep your lingerie looking and feeling luxurious, follow these simple care instructions:
- Hand Wash Only
For the best care, always hand wash your lingerie in lukewarm water (not exceeding 30°C/86°F). Gently agitate the water with your hands to avoid any damage to delicate fabrics like lace, satin, and silk.
- Use a Gentle Detergent
Choose a mild, lingerie-specific detergent or a gentle, sulfate-free soap. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the delicate fibers and affect the fabric’s elasticity.
- Avoid Scrubbing
Do not scrub or wring your lingerie. Gently press out any excess water by pressing the fabric between two towels or using your hands. This will prevent stretching and distortion.
- Wash Individually or in a Lingerie Bag
To prevent snagging, wash lingerie pieces individually or place them inside a mesh lingerie bag. This is particularly important for bras with delicate lace or embellishments.
- Dry Flat or Hang Dry
Never tumble dry your lingerie, as the heat can damage the fabric, elastic, and lace. Lay it flat to dry on a clean towel or hang it by the straps (avoiding direct sunlight) to preserve its shape. Remember to straighten all straps.
- Do Not Iron
Avoid ironing your lingerie, especially lace, satin, or silk, as high heat can permanently damage delicate fabrics. If needed, lightly steam to remove wrinkles at a low heat setting, keeping the iron a safe distance away.
- Store Properly
Store your lingerie using our satin bags from Sensalle in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep items like bras in their original shape by folding the cups inward or using a bra organizer to prevent deformation.
- Be Gentle with Embellishments
If your lingerie includes delicate features such as rhinestones, beads, or embroidery, handle them with extra care. Always check that these embellishments are secure before washing.
By following these simple washcare tips, you can ensure that your lingerie retains its luxurious feel and lasts longer, so you can enjoy wearing it again and again.
