Yellow kit, see how to fix it.

Have you opened a dresser in your closet and noticed that your    favorite accessory  is entirely yellow? Without fear! There are specific techniques that allow you to avoid using bleach, which damages the fabric, and obtain a kit that is almost like new! Read on to learn how to renew your    yellowed kit.

Yellow kit: whiten with natural products

Below is a series of natural products that can help completely whiten a yellowed kit.

Sodium bicarbonate

Baking soda    once again comes to the rescue. It is a natural whitening product and its action is also very valid on fabrics. In particular, saturated sodium bicarbonate is a real natural disinfectant, which will allow you not only to whiten, but also to clean fabrics in the best possible way. All you have to do is    pre-treat    your yellowed kit by placing it in a container with a few tablespoons of baking soda. Then let it soak for a few hours then wash it at 40°C. You can also gently and carefully rub baking soda on the yellow stains.

Apple vinegar

Another exceptional natural product for this purpose is undoubtedly    apple cider vinegar.   We are talking about a very effective food to combat scratches, especially yellows on white fabrics, because it contains several acids that act on them. We are also talking about an antibacterial product,    softener    and degreaser in general. The only thing we need to do is fill a container with hot water and a glass of apple cider vinegar; We now immerse the fabrics to be bleached and let them soak for a few hours. Then we will wash the kit at 40°C and that’s it!

Lemon juice

Finally, you can use a natural bleach par excellence,    lemon    . This lightener is super effective on fabrics and helps remove stains of different types. It is necessary to pre-treat the elements to be removed with lemon juice: we need at least 5-6 lemons, the juice of which must be placed in a container. It will probably be enough to wet the fabric, which will then be immersed in water and left to soak for half an hour. The acids will act and we can then wash at 40°C in the washing machine. If we have several clothes to launder, we should try diluting the lemon juice with the necessary amount of water.
