6 fragrant good tips for your laundry

Nothing beats dressing in fragrant and clean clothes Below, we've put together some tips to get the laundry to smell lovely Follow these 6 steps and you're in a fragrant, good shape!

1. Do not leave wet laundry in the washing machine
It has happened to all of us to forget the washing in the machine when the days are loaded with tasks of various kinds But wet laundry left in the drum for some time, is a breeding ground for mold The laundry smells of mold and heavy moisture odor and there is even a chance that the next time you put in the machine, that laundry will come with the smell of this bad smell So, to get fresh and fragrant laundry out of the machine, the advice is to take the laundry out of the machine as soon as possible once it has finished and it might be nice to make the phone remind you.

2. Keep the washing machine clean - inside and out
If wet laundry has been allowed to lie in the machine, now or your machine is in heavy use, it is likely to need a good clean inside so it delivers clean and fragrant laundry Here comes a good tip to clean it; the low temperature most of us use for washing, is too low to prevent mold and bacteria in the machine, so set the machine to 80 -90°C, keep it empty and let it clean away the dirt It's nice to repeat this regularly It's also very good to wipe with vinegar over the glass and rubber edge inside and soap wash the compartments. So there's nothing that forbids you from putting detergent directly in the drum - it saves laundry on the compartments.

3. Do not overload the machine
We know it's tempting to put as much as you can stuff into the machine - especially when the clothing mountain is ever-expanding in a big home! But an overflowing machine simply can't wash the laundry as well as needed - for that, the clothes need to be able to move inside the machine It's a decent rule of thumb to aim for you to arrive, corresponding to, the width of your hand above the wash In the long run, you'll save time because the clothes are cleaner when you take them off the machine and you can use them longer until the next wash is needed.

4. Use a good detergent with a good fragrance
One of the key things to get fresh and fragrant laundry is to use a good detergent with a moderately high fragrance in it. Wash your laundry with any of Ariel's other high-quality detergents, and if you prefer even more aroma, you can add a little splash of Lenor Unstoppable. The aroma lasts up to 12 weeks (in a closet).

5. Use every opportunity to hang the laundry on a cable on sunny days
On sunny days, it's ideal to rest the dryer and the indoor cords and allow the laundry to dry quickly and well in the hot sun. And yes, it can sometimes blow briskly in Iceland but we're not talking about hanging the laundry out in crazy wind! It's proven that the sun's rays can even help eliminate bacteria from washing and make it as clean as possible. Still remember that dark laundry shouldn't be in the sun for long - it could possibly discolour.

6. Take good care of the clothes in the cupboards. It is, for example, ideal to take large and thick clothes and air them occasionally.
Now you've finished doing your laundry with some of Ariel's lips, smashed it neatly and put it in place Then you don't want that „cabinet smell“ to come into it at all, which sometimes comes in clothes that are long immobilized inside a closet This is especially prone when one season is coming to an end and it will be a long time before the garments in question will be used again One way is to use vacuum-packed clothes bags They are very simple and comfortable to use and keep the clothes smelling longer ' - along with the closet itself. It's also nice to take thick and large garments, such as woolen coats and coats made of skin and air them outside occasionally.
