Since lingerie is made out of delicate materials that react different to heat and chemicals than other fabrics, you do want to be careful about how you wash your new purchases. Luckily, <a href=\"\/lingerie-care\">lingerie care doesn\u2019t have to be hard<\/a> if you know just a few basic things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Heat is always bad<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Lingerie can take a fair amount of abuse, but it doesn\u2019t do well with high heat. Heat breaks down elastics prematurely and can help underwires lose their shape. In practice, this boils down to one big tip: don\u2019t put your lingerie in the dryer, ever. Lingerie should be hung to dry or dried flat 100% of the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Use a gentle soap or a lingerie wash to clean your lingerie<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Lingerie wash sounds fancy, but what it really means is a liquid soap that is designed to clean delicate fabrics. There are lots of great choices out there (and if you\u2019re in a pinch, baby shampoo works pretty well as a substitute). We love Soak Wash because you don\u2019t have to rinse your pieces after using it, but Eucalan is also great if you\u2019re sensitive to scents. On the fancy end you can try Journelle\u2019s house brand lingerie wash, which smells heavenly. However you do it, don\u2019t get lazy and substitute your regular laundry detergent for lingerie wash!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you do put your bra through the washing machine, be smart about it<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>You should always hand wash your lingerie. That said, we all know that everyone puts their bras through the washer some of the time &#8211; hey, no one can be perfect every time! If you do need to put your bra through the washer, use common sense. Wash it on the delicate or handwash setting in cold water, with lingerie wash instead of regular detergent. Be sure that you don\u2019t put any other pieces in with it that can get snagged by the hooks if they come undone (try a lingerie bag to really protect things as well).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Don\u2019t squash your bras into your drawers<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>This is another one that pretty much everyone is guilty of, but you really shouldn\u2019t do it if you can avoid it. Storing bras badly can lead to fabric creases, tears in delicate fabrics and misshapen underwires. If you don\u2019t have enough storage space in your dresser, those giant clear storage tubs can work really well and pack away nicely in a closet or under a bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Know when to give up on your favorite piece of lingerie<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>If your <a href=\"\/collections\/sexy-bras\">bra<\/a> doesn\u2019t fit anyone, is stained, is ripped or just generally beaten up then you just need to replace it. We all know how hard it is to give up your favorite bra, but a beat up bra isn\u2019t doing your breasts or you any favors. Try to go through your lingerie once a year and be honest about what needs to be thrown out. After all, replacing your favorite pieces can be fun!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even with all of those great tips above, if you ever have any questions about the lingerie that you&#8217;ve purchased from <a href=\"\/\">Foxy Lingerie<\/a>, the materials they are made of, or how to best care for them, <a href=\"\/contact-us\">let us know<\/a> and we will be more than happy to help!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We get lots of questions from our customers about how to properly care for their lingerie &#8211; especially the pieces that they love and want to last a long time.
