During the wash cycle, add 125 ml of hydrogen peroxide to the washing machine.
For tougher stains, apply hydrogen peroxide directly to the fabric before washing.
Hydrogen peroxide is also an excellent disinfectant, so it does a double job: not only does it make your clothes shiny, but you will also eliminate bacteria.
4. Lemon Juice:
Lemon juice is another natural ingredient that can brighten white clothes. Known for its astringent properties, lemon juice helps remove stains and refresh fabrics. While its stain-removing properties are somewhat limited compared to other natural ingredients, it works wonders when combined with methods like sun drying.
How to use lemon juice:
Boil some water and add a few slices of lemon. Soak the clothes in the lemon water for about an hour before washing them as usual.
You can also mix lemon juice with salt and a little soap to make a pre-wash solution. Apply it to the stained areas before washing, then dry your clothes in the sun for best results.
Lemon juice not only helps to lighten the color of clothes, but also gives them a fresh, clean scent.
5. Milk.
It may seem unusual, but milk has traditionally been used to bleach delicate fabrics. The proteins in milk help remove dirt and stains, making clothes lighter. This method works best for lightly soiled clothes and delicate fabrics, not for heavily stained ones.
