Use fabric conditioner for basic bras

Measure the correct dose of Downy Fabric Conditioner.

For your basic bras, we recommend using Liqiud Fabric Conditioner to help protect them from getting damaged in the wash.

Use Fresh Protect for sports bras

Add Downy Fresh Protect for added odor protection.

Your favorite sports bra is probably made of synthetic fibers, and these types of fabrics are odor magnets.Downy Fresh Protect will actively neutralize odors—it’s like deodorant for your clothes!

Line dry

Line drying is a great way to dry any lingerie that can’t be machine dried.

Air drying bras will help keep them in like-new condition. Hang them by their center to help keep their shape.

Using the dryer? Use a mesh bag

Take care when drying delicate bras in the dryer.

The spin cycle can be a rough time for delicates, so for added protection, stick them in a mesh bag to avoid excessive pulling and tugging.
