Let’s be real: your fajas are putting in work. Whether you're strutting through a heatwave, dancing at a summer party or just living your best hot-girl life, your shapewear is right there with you - lifting, smoothing, and boosting. So let’s show it some love, shall we? Here’s how to keep your fajas fresh, firm and fabulous all summer long:
Why Summer Sweat Demands Extra Care
Summer means more sun, more fun - and yep, more sweat. And while your fajas are designed to handle heat and movement, all that extra moisture can wear down the fabric faster if you’re not washing and storing them properly. Sweat can trap oils, bacteria and even odor in the compression fabric, which means this isn’t the season to "skip a wash day."
But if you absolutely must? Grab our Antibacterial Spray to help freshen things up between washes. It’s the perfect quick fix to keep your faja clean, odor-free and ready for your next hot-girl outing.
Why Summer Sweat Demands Extra Care
1. Hand wash only, babe.
We know, tossing it in the washer is tempting - but fajas are delicate and deserve your gentle touch. Fill a basin with cool water and a small amount of mild detergent (no bleach, no fabric softener!).
2. Soak, swish, repeat.
Let your faja soak for 10–15 minutes. Then gently agitate the water and use your hands to press the fabric (no wringing or stretching!).
3. Rinse it like you mean it.
Rinse thoroughly with cool water until there’s no soap left. Leftover detergent can weaken elasticity over time.
4. Press out the water.
Lay your faja flat on a clean towel and roll it up to press out moisture. Don’t twist or wring - your curves wouldn’t like that.
5. Air dry only.
Lay it flat to dry in a shaded area. Keep it far away from direct sun or heat (like dryers or radiators) which can damage compression fibers.
Keep it Fresh Between Washes
As we said, summer is the season of washing your faja more consistently, but sometimes we just don't have the time or opportunity. Don't worry, we've got you! Our Antibacterial Spray is designed to help keep your faja clean, fresh, and free of odor-causing bacteria. Just give it a light mist after each wear to help neutralize sweat and keep things hygienic until your next wash. It’s a must-have, especially in the summer months.
How to Store Your Fajas (Yes, It Matters!)
Skip the drawer dump. Tossing your faja into a pile with jeans and gym clothes? Nope. It deserves a VIP spot.
-
Fold it gently (don’t roll or ball it up)
-
Store it flat in a cool, dry drawer or fabric bin
-
Keep it away from zippers or hooks that could snag the material
-
Avoid plastic bags - they trap moisture and can lead to mildew
Going on vacay? Use a breathable lingerie bag to keep your faja fresh and travel-ready.
