Yes, you may already use it to deodorize your fridge or clean your sink, but did you know that baking soda is also an excellent fabric whitener? Added directly to the washing machine drum, just a tablespoon is enough to boost the action of your laundry while eliminating odors and softening the water.
It’s like adding a pinch of magic to your wash cycle: your clothes come out fresher, softer, and most importantly, visibly whiter.
How to use it correctly in your machine?
The trick is as simple as it is practical:
- Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda directly into the drum , along with your laundry.
- Start your usual laundry cycle, using the program suited to your white clothes.
- For a stronger effect, especially on very yellowed laundry, you can combine the bicarbonate with 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to pour into the fabric softener compartment (they should not be mixed in the same place!).
