SWIMWEAR CARE
To keep your Salt Sista swimwear vibrant, comfortable, and long-lasting, proper care is essential. Here’s how to care for your swimwear the right way.
Skip the Dry Ironing:
If needed, use a steam iron on low heat with caution. Best practice is to dry in the shade where possible. Do not leave in direct sunlight for extended period
Hand Wash Only:
Gently rinse your swimwear in cold water as soon as possible after use. Avoid machine washing and harsh detergents to protect that buttery soft fabric.
Dry Completely Before Storing:
Ensure your swimsuit is thoroughly dry before storing. This will deter any bacteria and /or odours.
With a little extra care, your Salt Sista swimwear will stay as beautiful and functional as ever, ready for all your adventures!
