Bags to separate garments

Price: $8.99

Use them every time you put the washing machine to avoid friction. The editor says: If you still don't know what can and can't be washed at home, make sure with the Q-tip test. In a part of the garment that cannot be seen, put a little soap and water, and rub with a Q-tip; if the fabric fades, then it does have to go to the dry cleaner.

Dry Clean Cloths

Price: $20.93

They are used to clean and refresh fine fabric garments. They do not shrink, stretch or discolor clothing. Editor Says: Using these wipes is super easy. First you use the instant wipes on the stain and then you put the clothes in the dryer with a sheet of Woolite that removes odors and freshens. Extra tip: Always try to remove the sheet a few minutes before the washing machine finishes drying, and finish by hanging the garment.

Avoid burns by wearing protective gloves.
