There’s something truly satisfying about seeing a wardrobe full of clothes that are as white as snow. Over time, however, even the whitest fabrics can lose their brilliance, succumbing to stains and a dull, lackluster appearance. But fear not, for there is a surprisingly simple solution that can restore your clothes to their former glory, and it involves a couple of household staples you likely already have on hand: a soaking liquid with dish cleaner.
