Hello Peeps,
Ok, lets say your going on a big shopping trip to Oxford Street with good friend of yours, and you want to look your best but your favourite dress/ jeans/ t-shirt smells dirty! "but I only wore it yesterday to the library! How did that happen?" So what do you do? Drench it in perfume and hope if overpowers the smell? Dab it with water? Air it out on the washing line? No! Talcum powder!
I don't know if you know this but the more you wash clothes the less it will last, the chemicals don't only eat away at body odour and last nights ketchup stains, they eat away your clothes. And when clothes just have a little smell to them just because they were worn a for several hours before doesn't mean you need sling it in the wash. I discovered this method while watching an interview on Vivienne Westwood when she was talking about recycling fashion and clothes.
Before I start I would just like to say that this will not thoroughly wash your clothes but make them fresh and clean-smelling; when something has been over-worn, washing will be morally the right thing. Also I can't guarantee this will be 100% safe with all fabrics, all I can say is I've used it loads of times and I haven't had a single problem, so I would say 93% certain.
Anyway, lets not dilly dally and get on with things shall we?
Step 1: Lay the garment on a flat wide surface (i.e. bed or table)
Step 2: Sparingly sprinkle the talcum powder over the crotch, inner thighs, underarms, low back area, and/or any places where odours may linger (you may want to do the same on the inside.)
Step 3: Vigorously pat, rub, and shake the powder into the applied areas until white smears have disappeared (note: for black clothes it is often harder to rub the powder into the fabric, just keep going, and if unsuccessful just spray with a small amount of water.)
So there you have it, three simple, quick, and easy steps to you clean-feeling clothes. Hope you've learnt something from this and I will see you later,
Bye for now
