How to Make Your Clothes Look Like New With These 15 Genius Products

0

There’s nothing worse than buying new clothes and watching them slowly lose their shine, color and shape from the wash. I used to literally avoid buying white clothes because every time I machine washed them they turned to this kind of gray-off-white color. You’re probably already rehearsing the solution in your head, which is, yes, to separate whites and colors when washing clothes. However, if you’re wondering how to make your clothes look like new again, these clothes-restoring products will do wonders to keep them shiny and stain-free.

When I had to pay for my laundry, I convinced myself that the separate laundry rule was more of a suggestion and never put it into practice. However, now that I’ve grown up and expanded my cleaning knowledge, I separate my colors with every wash. I also added a few clothes restorers into the mix to keep things looking fresher. The best way to think about it is this: if you have a problem with one of your items (clothes, jackets, shoes, etc.), a solution has probably been invented to solve it. It’s amazing what you’ll find when you Google the issues you struggle with when it comes to keeping your clothes looking like new, long after you’ve started wearing them. Take it from someone who spent a lot of time ignoring stains, stains and distress on my favorite items: there are solutions!
