Brilio.net - Deodorant is often a savior from body odor. However, many people actually face a rather annoying problem when using deodorant, namely white crust stains left on clothes. Stains can leave marks when deodorant products stick to clothes. In addition to ruining the appearance, these stains are a serious problem because they are quite difficult to remove.
The white crust that appears on clothes due to deodorant is usually caused by a combination of active ingredients such as aluminum and antiperspirants that react with sweat. These ingredients are designed to reduce sweat and keep you fresh, but they also leave a residue that sticks to the fibers of the fabric. Over time, this residue hardens and turns into a visible crust, especially on dark colored clothes.
To overcome this problem, it is important to choose the right deodorant and know how to clean stubborn stains. However, if the stains have already stuck, you must immediately clean them as much as possible. In order for the stains to disappear, it is best to avoid using detergent when washing clothes. There are other kitchen ingredients that are more effective in removing this white crust of deodorant residue.
As reported by BrilioFood from Instagram @rumah_shahia on Monday (2/12), the kitchen ingredients in question are dishwashing soap, baking soda, and vinegar. Well, these three ingredients are considered to be able to remove stubborn stains, such as deodorant that has dried and crusted.

How to use it is quite easy, first, make sure the clothes are dry first. After that, pour dish soap on the stained area. Then add baking soda and vinegar to taste. Next, smooth all these ingredients with an old toothbrush.

Now, while smoothing it out, you can rub it slowly until all the ingredients are perfectly absorbed into the fabric fibers. After that, let it sit for 10-15 minutes so that the stains are easier to clean later. If so, rinse with water and wash as usual with a brush.
