In fact, every housewife has her own life hacks, what to add to the powder when washing in a machine to wash things
It may seem unpleasant if things are washed in the washing machine in pepper, salt or sunflower oil. But it turns out that if these components are compatible with the powder, you can get amazing results.
Black pepper
Add it to washing powder if you want your clothes to not lose their color for a long time after washing. Just one teaspoon is enough. You need to pour the pepper into the rinse compartment, and it is better to run the wash in cold water. When the wash cycle is finished, you will notice that your clothes are much brighter. This even works with black T-shirts and jeans.
Sunflower oil
Do you throw away your kitchen towels and bed linens after only a year of use because they become stiff after washing? If you use sunflower oil, this will not happen. This product must already be poured inside the drum. The oil not only softens the fabric, but also helps get rid of unpleasant odors better than any air conditioner.
Vegetable oil, soda and soap
Add all these components to hot water to prepare a solution, and you can effectively clean your laundry from any stains. You will need about 8 liters of this liquid. It is better to grate the soap so that it dissolves faster. To also get rid of unpleasant odors, soak them in this solution and leave for 8-10 hours. Don’t forget to stir from time to time. Then rinse thoroughly and wash in the washing machine.
Sunflower oil with washing powder
This life hack is especially useful if you need to wash kitchen towels. Boiling will get rid of bacteria and pathogens. Place an enamel pan on the fire and wait for the water to boil. Add washing powder and two tablespoons of vegetable oil. Mix thoroughly. Leave the kitchen towels to simmer over low heat for one hour. Then, when cool, rinse. However, experts do not advise boiling things too often, because this will wear them out faster.
Salt
Salt has the same properties as black pepper. It can be added to the washing powder compartment so that the color of things becomes bright again and does not fade. Just one tablespoon is enough. Salt is suitable for both colored and white fabrics. And if you are afraid to put it in the washing machine, you can dilute it in warm water and soak the clothes in a basin. Salt is also great for removing yellow sweat stains. It also cleanses the blood, but then you need to soak it in cold water.
