Never mix whites and coloreds

One of the “safest” ways to end up with your clothes ruined is to mix your white shirts, sheets, or any other clothes with a bunch of colored ones. By doing this, rest assured you’ll end up with a bunch of dirty greys.

While dyes are better than they ever were, the color might still run. That’s why it’s super important to have a look at the care label before washing anything.

If you want to avoid colors running around in the washing machine, the best and safest way to do so is to make sure your whites won’t end up grey or worse, just take a couple of minutes of your time to separate your laundry between whites and coloreds.

BONUS TIP: Wash your white clothes in the warmest setting of your washing machine for that flawless, pure white hue!
