Often, after washing, housewives notice that the color of the clothes has faded or the linen has acquired an unpleasant shade.

But even in this case, you shouldn’t say goodbye to your favorite items from your carefully compiled wardrobe.

Good old baking soda will help restore the richness of things.

The combination of baking soda, mustard powder and lemon juice effectively copes with such tasks as restoring color and removing stains.

Preparing the cleaning agent is simple: combine 100 g of baking soda, 2 tablespoons of strong mustard powder and 100 g of lemon juice in a suitable container.

All you need to do is soak the laundry in the solution for about 30-40 minutes, then wash it in any convenient way and rinse. The yellowness or grayness will disappear instantly, and the shade will “come alive”.
