How do I wash and care for my shaping bodysuit so that it lasts?
Bad laundry detergent = stretched elastane in two cycles. Follow these 5 steps and your bodysuit will retain its sculpting power for months.
1. Maximum temperature: 30°C
Beyond that point, the elastane breaks.
2. Turn the bodysuit inside out
Fewer snags, colors preserved.
3. Gentle laundry detergent, zero fabric softener
Fabric softener leaves a greasy film and reduces the "bounce" of the fabric.
4. Spin speed 800 rpm max
Beyond that: micro-cracks → white marks.
5. Air drying
Hang flat or on a foam hanger. Never tumble dry.
