The Importance of Regularly Replacing Bras and Underwear

When it comes to maintaining personal hygiene and overall health, we often focus on aspects such as regular bathing, dental care, and clean clothing. However, one area that tends to be overlooked is the frequency of replacing bras and panties. Wearing worn-out or ill-fitting undergarments can have implications for both our physical and emotional well-being. In this article, we will explore the importance of regularly replacing bras and panties for the sake of our health and optimal hygiene.

Over time, bras and panties accumulate sweat, dead skin cells, and other bodily fluids. This moist environment provides a breeding ground for bacteria and yeast, which can lead to various infections, such as yeast infections or urinary tract infections (UTIs), even with frequent washing. Regularly changing out undergarments helps minimize the risk of these infections.

Additionally, as bras become more worn, the elastic bands may stretch, leading to inadequate support for the breasts. Similarly, panties may lose their shape and fail to provide the desired coverage. Replacing bras and panties periodically ensures the appropriate support needed to maintain proper health and comfort. Our bodies change frequently as women, due to factors such as pregnancy, regular weight fluctuations, or aging. As a result, our bras and panties that have been with us through some of those fluctuations may fit us completely differently than when we first got them.  Wearing undergarments that do not fit properly can lead to poor posture, back pain, and discomfort. 

Lastly and of course not least importantly, wearing old or worn-out undergarments can affect our mood and make us feel less put-together. On the other hand, wearing new, well-fitting undergarments can boost self-confidence and overall well-being. Feeling comfortable and supported in undergarments that fit properly enhances body positivity and helps improve self-esteem.

Regularly replacing bras and panties is essential for maintaining optimal health and overall well-being.  Remember to assess the condition of your undergarments periodically and replace them when necessary to enjoy the numerous benefits of wearing clean, supportive, and properly fitting bras and panties.

Lingerie Care

Lingerie can be a tricky thing to care for, especially when dealing with fine craftsmanship, luxurious bras, or high-quality materials that can’t wash with other garments. 

Do’s:

  • When in doubt, hand wash with warm, not hot, water.
  • Dry naturally - hang up gently to avoid wrinkles.
  • Use a small amount of Soak Wash soap and gently massage your lingerie. No rinse necessary (Soak samples included with every online purchase). Click the link to view our Soak Wash products available for purchase.
  • Use a reusable laundry bag to keep your undergarments separate from other dirty garments. Click the link to view laundry bags available for purchase. 
  • For loungewear, lay flat or hang gently to dry. 
  • For loungewear, machine wash on warm, gentle settings. Hand wash advised. 
  • For 100% silk products, dry clean, cold wash, and ironing ok. Handwashing may change the luster of silk. 

Dont's:

  • Wash your lingerie in a washing machine. This can damage the materials, colors, embroideries, or cause harmful rips.
  • Tumble dry. Lingerie should always dry naturally and be hung up carefully away from other garments. 
  • Iron. 
  • Dry clean. 
  • Bleach.
