Frequently asked questions
How often should I wash my lingerie?

We recommend washing after every wear. Body oils and sweat can break down delicate fabrics and elastic over time, reducing the lifespan of your pieces.
Can I use a washing machine?

While hand washing is always preferred, you can machine wash if you use a lingerie bag, select the delicate cycle, and use cold water. Always fasten hooks and turn items inside out first.
Why shouldn't I use fabric softener?

Fabric softeners coat fibers, which can break down elastic and reduce absorbency in performance fabrics. They can also cause skin irritation for those with sensitivities.
How can I restore yellowed white lingerie?

Soak in a solution of cold water and a gentle oxygen-based bleach for 30 minutes before washing. Avoid chlorine bleach as it can damage delicate fibers.
