My tips for preserving your precious swimsuits:
- Rinse after each use : After a day at the beach or pool, it is essential to Rinse your swimsuit in clean water to remove salt, chlorine, and sunscreen residue that can damage the fibers. Leaving these substances on the fabric not only risks compromising the durability of your swimsuit, but also causes discoloration and unpleasant odors over time.

Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach, as these can damage the elastic fibers and alter the texture of the fabric. If you insist on washing it in the washing machine, use a laundry bag, often used for washing lingerie. This will further protect your swimsuit during washing.

UV rays can alter the colors and texture of the fabric, making your swimsuit dull and fragile. We often see this with our curtains; their color can fade with the sun and over time.

5. Rotate Swimsuits: Having multiple swimsuits and rotating them regularly will allow each one to rest between uses, extending their overall lifespan. By alternating the use of your swimsuits, you reduce excessive wear and tear and maintain their elasticity and color longer.

6. Avoid rough surfaces: When sitting on the pool deck or sand, be sure to protect your swimsuit with a towel or sheet to prevent excessive friction that could damage it. Rough surfaces can cause snags and tears in the fabric, compromising the integrity of your swimsuit.
7. Proper Storage: Store your swimsuits in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. A lightweight cloth bag is ideal for carrying them while traveling. Avoid excessive folding to prevent permanent creases and unwanted marks.
