Brilio.net - Frequently using towels but rarely washing them will automatically cause lots of stains to stick to the towel fibers. On the other hand, dirty towels are also characterized by their texture being stiff and no longer soft. If this condition is left, the stains on the towels can increase and turn black, making it difficult to clean automatically by washing manually.
That's why, so that towels can shine again, many people choose to wash them with citrus or citric acid. This material with a fairly high acid content is believed to be effective in removing stubborn stains on towels. However, if you don't have a stock of citrus at home, don't worry because there are other ways.
How to wash dirty towels so they shine again was shared by the owner of the YouTube account YAHMAN CN. This netizen, familiarly known as Yahman, is known as the owner of a laundry business, so he is no stranger to washing very dirty towels. After all, he only needed one additional kitchen ingredient to practice this method.
How to wash dirty towels.
"This towel has turned gray, the towel is also stiff, rough on the skin," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube YAHMAN CN on Monday (8/4).
The first thing you have to prepare is a basin or bucket, then add a little laundry bleach and liquid detergent. Then, add enough dish soap. Yup, dishwashing soap is the main kitchen ingredient for practicing this method of washing towels.
After these three ingredients are added, just dissolve them in hot water. The owner of the YouTube account YAHMAN CN said that he only used 1 liter of hot water because he only had 1 towel to wash. Stir until all the cleaning ingredients are dissolved in the water.

Then, soak the towel in the cleaning solution. Stir briefly to ensure all parts of the towel are completely submerged. Once done, let the towel soak for a few moments so that the stain can be removed more easily.
"I stayed for 1 hour to do other things. Leave it for 1 hour or maybe more," stressed Yahman.
After soaking, just check or brush the towel until the stain is completely gone. While scrubbing, you can also rub in bar soap to maximize the washing process. Next, if the stain on the towel has faded, rinse the towel with clean water.

The next process is optional, but to make the towels smell good, you can soak them in water with a clothes freshener solution. The owner of the YouTube account YAHMAN CN explained that the process of soaking a towel in this fragrance only takes about 5 minutes. Then, rinse, wring and dry the towel until dry.

Rough skin due to contact with dishwashing soap generally occurs because the soap contains harsh chemicals and can irritate the skin. Here are some natural ways that can help deal with rough skin.
1. Natural oil.
After washing the dishes, you can apply natural oil such as olive oil, almond oil, or extra virgin coconut oil to your hands and skin areas exposed to soap. This oil will help moisturize the skin and reduce irritation.
2. Oatmeal.
Warm water containing oatmeal can help moisturize the skin and reduce itching and irritation. You can prepare water by adding oatmeal to it or use skin care products that contain oatmeal.
3. Honey and milk.
Mix honey and milk to make a natural scrub. Coarse sugar or salt can also be added to provide a mild exfoliating effect. Rub this mixture gently into your hands and rough skin areas, then rinse with warm water.
4. Aloe vera.
Aloe vera gel has natural healing and moisturizing properties. Apply aloe vera gel directly to irritated skin after washing dishes, and let it absorb into the skin.
5. Avoid soap that contains harsh chemicals.
Choose dishwashing soap that is gentler and does not contain harsh chemicals that can cause skin irritation.
