Jessica from Eberjey recommends The Laundress Delicate Wash, ensuring that a little dash goes a long way. Hard detergents and bleach are major no-nos when it comes to hand-washing lingerie.
How to Hand-Wash Bras With Woolite
This is definitely a great option for washing bras. It's gentle and won't be harmful to the fabric. You can definitely add a dash of this to your soaking basin if it's what you have on hand.
Can You Use Shampoo?
Shampoo is not recommended, mostly because it's a little too soapy, which can be harsh on some materials — you're better safe than sorry! If you have non-scented baby shampoo, however, this is definitely more delicate and you can get away with it.
Can You Skip Detergent Altogether?
You can definitely soak your intimates without any detergent at all. Jessica recommends doing this every other wash, but just letting your pieces soak a little longer than the regular 30 minutes. If you want to skip the detergent but you love a fresh, clean scent, grab one of your essential oils, mix it with hot water, and throw it into the sink to soak.
