Brilio.net - Turmeric stains on clothes are often a problem that is difficult to remove. The bright yellow color of turmeric, which is often used in cooking as a spice and natural dye, can quickly absorb into the fabric fibers, leaving stubborn marks. This problem becomes more complicated when turmeric stains are not treated immediately , because the longer the stain sticks, the harder it is to remove. Efforts to clean turmeric stains with regular methods such as washing with detergent are often not effective enough.
Turmeric stains have strong and long-lasting pigment properties, so they require special treatment. Many people try various methods, from using warm water to various cleaning products, but turmeric stains still leave unsightly yellow marks. However, there are several effective ways that can help remove turmeric stains from clothes. One of them is by using kitchen ingredients, as done by the owner of the Facebook account Fitri Rahmawati.
