Body shapers are an essential piece in your wardrobe for the tight and harmonious appearance they give your body. Like any piece of clothing, you need to take care of it in a special way so that it stays with you for as long as possible and in its best condition to guarantee you the best results advertised for it. Here is your comprehensive guide to taking care of your body shaper for as long as possible...
Suitable washing methods
Hand washing: Treat body shapers gently during washing and avoid strong washing methods. It is preferable to clean with lukewarm water and a mild detergent for clothes.
Using the correct detergent: Avoid harsh detergents and fabric softeners that can damage the elasticity of the corset and lose its ability to tighten the body properly. Use a mild detergent or even baby shampoo for safe cleaning.
Avoid rubbing: Do not rub body shapers excessively, as this can weaken the fabric. Move them gently in soap and water and rinse them well to remove all traces of detergent.
Suitable drying methods:
Avoid using heat during drying: Because it can damage body shapers and lose their elasticity and ability to tighten properly. Instead, you can spread the corset and dry it with a towel to absorb all the excess water from it, and then you can dry it in a well-ventilated place.
Avoid direct sunlight: Because it can cause the color of the corset to change and fade.
Storage methods
Folding clothes carefully: Instead of hanging body shapers, fold them carefully and store them in a cool, dry place where hanging can stretch the fabric over time.
Separate storage: Keep body shapers away from sharp objects that can cause the delicate fabric to crack or tear.
Additional tip: Get used to rinsing body shapers with cold water after each wear, especially if you have sweated. This will help remove any build-up and maintain it.
By following these simple care and maintenance tips, you can extend the life of your body shapers and ensure they continue to be your secret weapon for confidence and a tight figure!
