Washing clothes, in addition to removing all the dirt, also gives freshness and fragrance to our clothes!
For this reason, we always try to make the perfume last a long time so that it leaves its scent every time we go somewhere. Sometimes it seems like a difficult task, but in reality it’s simpler than you think , you just need to use the right ingredients.
Today, we are going to see together that just 3 spoons are enough to have long-term scented laundry!
Baking soda
Baking soda is always the right solution when you want to do perfect laundry!
In fact, it is one of the most popular elements of the washing machine and, although it is odorless, it is still fantastic for giving freshness to clothes and not risking giving them an odor musty or stale.
I therefore advise you to put 3 tablespoons of product directly into the washing machine tray, accompanied by a few drops of essential oil, at your convenience.
Start washing and you will smell the smell for a long time!
Marseille’s soap
Among grandmother’s old tips that we cannot ignore, there is also Marseille soap.
In fact, it is thanks to the latter that clothes are well scented and that it is possible to eliminate even the most stubborn stains in a short time; so why not use it?
Cut 3 tablespoons of Marseille soap flakes and put them in the detergent drawer, then start the wash.
The result will be incredible and you will see that it will stay on your clothes for a long time!
Lemon juice
It may seem strange, but lemon juice is also great for not making clothes stinky, for softening and above all for leaving a pleasant smell!
All you need to do is put 2 tablespoons of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of baking soda into the detergent drawer and start washing.
You can also make a natural lemon softener by dissolving the juice of 2 lemons in 1 liter of water and adding 100 ml of product to each wash.
To finish: natural fabric softener
To finish the methods to use when washing , I recommend making a natural fabric softener.
Usually, too much fabric softener or the wrong composition causes bad odors on clothes.
In this regard, it is always good to adopt natural tips; so let’s see how to prepare our fabric softener.
You will need to dissolve 150 grams of citric acid in 1 liter of water and add 10 drops of essential oil to your taste.
Transfer everything to a bottle of your choice and your natural cleanser is ready!
Scented sachets in the drawer
Finally, you can use scented sachets in the drawer to keep the scent going for a long time, even for weeks!
The bag must be breathable and have large mesh ; inside you can put different ingredients such as bay leaves, soap flakes, dried citrus peels, cotton wool soaked in essential oils or other.
Change the ingredients from time to time, when you feel that it no longer diffuses their scent and that’s it!
