How wash clothing and keep them clean and fresh

 To wash clothing and keep them clean and fresh, follow these steps:

  1. Sort clothes according to color and fabric type, separating darks, lights, and delicates.

  2. Check the care label on each garment for washing instructions, including water temperature and cycle type.

  3. Measure the right amount of laundry detergent, following the manufacturer's instructions.

  4. Load the clothes into the washing machine, making sure not to overload it.

  5. Set the appropriate water temperature and cycle type based on the care label instructions.

  6. Add the detergent to the machine and start the cycle.

  7. After the cycle is complete, remove the clothes from the machine and transfer them to a dryer or hang them to air dry.

  8. For best results, use fabric softener and/or dryer sheets for added freshness.

Note: Treat any stains as soon as possible, before washing the clothes.


Using a small amount of detergent, even if you wash the clothes multiple times, may not effectively clean them and remove any dirt or stains. It's important to follow the manufacturer's instructions on the detergent package and use the recommended amount for the size of the load of laundry. Additionally, using too little detergent can also result in a build-up of detergent residue on your clothes, making them feel stiff and less fresh. So, it's best to use the appropriate amount of detergent for your load size for optimal cleaning and freshness.


The optimal time for cleaning and freshness would depend on the specific product you are using. Generally, for laundry detergents, it is recommended to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the recommended amount to use for each load of laundry.

Additionally, the type of fabric, the amount of dirt and stains on the clothes, and the water temperature can also affect the cleaning and freshness results. To ensure optimal cleaning and freshness, it's best to sort your clothes by color and fabric type, check the care label on each garment for washing instructions, measure the right amount of detergent, and set the appropriate water temperature and cycle type.


If you are limited to washing your clothes in a small tube with a limited amount of detergent, here are some tips to optimize the cleaning and freshness:

  1. Sort clothes by color and fabric type, separating darks and lights.

  2. Use cold water, as hot water can set in stains and shrink certain fabrics.

  3. Pre-treat any noticeable stains before washing.

  4. Agitate the clothes manually, using your hands to rub the detergent into the fabric. This will help to maximize the cleaning power of the limited amount of detergent.

  5. Rinse the clothes thoroughly to remove any remaining dirt or detergent residue.

  6. Hang the clothes to air dry, as using a dryer can consume a lot of energy and may not be feasible in a small tube.

Note: It's important to consider that using a small amount of detergent in a small tube may not provide the same level of cleaning and freshness as using the recommended amount of detergent in a full-sized washing machine. It may also be difficult to thoroughly rinse the clothes, which can result in detergent residue and a less fresh smell.
