Even though perfume lasts better on clothes, it can tend to weaken the fibers of your clothes and make them  fade over time , especially because of its alcohol composition. That's why it's best to apply perfume and apply your deodorant before applying it. When it comes to laundry, you're also making the right choices. While powder detergent is better for white textiles, liquid detergent is better for colors and dark fabrics, especially since it works better at low temperatures. However  , the less hot you wash, the better you protect your laundry from wear and tear . Let's not forget that you should avoid applying too much detergent, both to save your budget and your machine and your wardrobe.

Mistake 4: Incorrectly filling the washing machine

Above all, always check the care label of a garment before putting it in the laundry. Some items can only be washed by hand or at a low temperature. Follow these instructions to make your clothes last longer. Also, remember  to always sort your laundry carefully  and, if possible, wash delicate items separately with a gentler wash cycle. This way, they will not be damaged by the rest of the laundry and excessively hot temperatures. Otherwise, you can protect them in a special net. In any case, avoid the dryer for knitwear, underwear and other fragile items in your wardrobe. Instead, gently pat them in a towel before hanging them up.
