What’s not to love about ukay? They’re used, but they’re affordable and with great quality! It’s no secret that I’ve been on the hunt for great finds for years and I’ll keep on doing it.
It’s the thrill of searching and acquiring that lovely dress, or skirt that you’ve been eyeing on at the mall or your favorite magazine for a fraction of the cost. And they’re branded too! Lately, I tried purchasing some clothes from Shopee and they’re totally fabulous.
Now, they look awesome and all but keeping them fresh and smelling brand new is a whole new story.
The pandemic has changed a lot of our habits and it includes the way we wash our clothes whether they’re brand new or used.
We have to keep in mind that these clothes stay untouched for days or months, might have been passed on from person to person, stored, and can be exposed to germs. It deserves to be cleaned, real good.
Here’s my take on it. Read the care label, after all instructions are there for a reason. Why put it on the washing machine if it’s supposed to be hand washed?
Tips:
1.Consider washing your ukay finds separately.
2.For hand washing clothes: fill a wash tub basin or sink with water, room temperature is ideal, put enough laundry detergent, mix, then submerge it. Agitate the water so it creates bubbles, then soak clothes for 30 minutes.
3.Use the washing machine. Sometimes a spin in the washer is all it takes to breath new life to your clothes.
When it comes to detergents and conditioners, I make sure I get my money’s worth. Surf’s Active clean technology has agents that cling to your clothes keeping them not just clean but also fragrant.
Surf fabric conditioner has been a staple on my laundry basket ever since I got my own apartment. Surf’s Sun -Bloom technology keeps clothes smelling even more aromatic when exposed to the heat of the sun.
The scent even lasts after a few days of being washed. I got a lot of compliments before the pandemic whenever I use this fabric conditioner. Apart from the long lasting smell, it is also affordable.
That’s a bang for the buck deal when you combine these two. As Lumen would put it, you definitely get linis at dobleng bango, wais pa sa presyo!
