Snow-white things are good only during the first period after purchase, and then they gradually acquire a grayish tint.

This fate awaits even high-quality terry towels. Of course, you shouldn't rush to throw things away.

There are proven, cheap remedies that will help restore the original whiteness. Sometimes, folk recipes are even more effective than bleaches, which work with varying success.

In Soviet times, housewives used a simple trick that easily helped restore the whiteness of things.

Mustard was used for this. It was this ingredient that allowed us to achieve the ideal result.

You just need to boil water and add 2 tablespoons of mustard per liter. After mixing, towels are dipped into the liquid and left for 12 hours.

Then the items are washed in the machine, but without conditioner. Experts do not recommend using this product, because it makes the towels absorb moisture worse. The items take a long time to dry, so a damp smell may appear.
