I'll tell you a secret, Megan! I'm 68% more likely to give you a pass on machine washing your bras if you compliment me in your question. Would hydrogen peroxide work? Thanks so much! You're great! - Megan M.
Do you think this would work? I am hesitant to use vinegar to soak it because it is an underwire bra. I have read about putting tea tree oil or grapefruit seed extract in the washer with cold water. I was hoping there would be a way to disinfect it. I have a bra that I LOVE that still smells a little funky after I wash it. I was wondering if you could help me figure something out.
