Deodorant helps people out when they need to get rid of sweat odor.

However, this product has a serious drawback: it can leave difficult-to-remove stains on clothing.

Yellow marks appear in the armpit area on T-shirts, shirts and blouses.

Dirt may remain on the items even after a full machine wash.

But don't panic. Deodorant stains can be removed with table salt.

How to prepare the remedy

You need to take a deep plate, pour 4 tablespoons of sodium chloride into it and add a little clean liquid.

You can’t overdo it with water: you don’t want to get a solution, but a mass that resembles a “porridge” in its consistency.

Using the resulting solution, carefully wipe the part of the clothing where deodorant stains have appeared.

It is advisable to leave the salt on the product for at least a quarter of an hour: the mass should “work”.

When the time is up, the "porridge" needs to be removed. After that, you need to send the pre-treated item into the drum of the washing machine.

After completing a standard wash, the garment will most likely no longer have any deodorant marks on it.
