Brilio.net - Have you ever had turmeric stains on your clothes while eating or cooking? This is of course very annoying because the stain is difficult to remove. Especially if the clothes are white, the turmeric stains will be even more visible.
Even though I have washed it repeatedly, the turmeric stain still won't come off. If it's like this, the clothes will look dirty. Wearing it doesn't feel comfortable anymore, right?
To clean it, you can soak white clothes in a citrus solution. After soaking for a while, I checked the white shirt with my hands until there was no turmeric stain left. Then rinse the white clothes with water and dry them in the sun.
But don't just use citrus, it turns out there are other cleaning agents that can be used to remove turmeric stains from white clothes. The method was shared by Instagram user @sayyidah_makeup. At the beginning of his video upload, he showed the appearance of his white shirt which was already stained with turmeric.
"We put this on liquid soap and it still won't come off, let's try another method," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from Instagram @sayyidah_makeup on Tuesday (21/5).

For maximum cleanliness, he immediately added two kitchen ingredients to the bucket containing white clothes. The kitchen ingredients in question are baking soda and table vinegar. After mixing the two ingredients, small bubbles immediately appeared.

You can try several ways to whiten yellowed clothes:
1. Soak with bleach solution.
Soak clothes in cold water with a little bleach. Make sure to follow the usage instructions listed on the bleach label and do not mix it with other ingredients that are sensitive to bleach.
2. Soaking with lime juice.
Mix lime juice with cold water in a 1:1 ratio. Soak yellowed clothes in this mixture for several hours before washing them normally.
3. Use baking soda.
Add baking soda to the soaking water before washing clothes. Soak clothes in this solution for several hours before washing.
4. Baking soda paste.
Make a paste of baking soda and a little water, then rub it on the yellowed areas before washing normally.
5. Citric acid.
Use a citric acid solution (which you can buy or make yourself by mixing citric acid with water) to soak yellowed clothes before washing.
Remember to always do a small test first on an invisible part of the shirt before using bleach or other ingredients, to ensure there are no unwanted reactions.
