Premium cotton garments—like the crisp Men’s White Shirt or the soft Women’s Oversized Cotton Shirt from MASK—deserve the best care. With proper maintenance, these pieces stay fresh, vibrant, and soft for years. Follow this ultimate guide to keep your cotton clothes looking premium.
1. Check the Care Label & Sort Properly
Before washing, always refer to each garment’s care label. MASK’s Men’s White Shirt and Women’s Oversized Cotton Shirt (100% cotton) usually recommend a cold or lukewarm wash to preserve fabric integrity.
Tip:
-
To avoid color bleed, keep whites and colors apart.
-
Turn darker items (e.g., Women’s Denim) inside out for extra protection
2. Use Gentle Detergent & the Right Water Temperature
Choose a mild, liquid detergent designed for cotton. Steer clear of bleach since it might weaken fibers and cause color fading.
-
For light-colored items like the Women's White Shirt, a gentle whitening detergent works well.
-
For darker pieces like the Women's Cotton denim floral printed Tunic, use color-safe liquid detergent.
Tip: Always wash cotton in cold or lukewarm water (30°C or 86°F) to prevent shrinkage and preserve color.
3. Opt for Delicate or Gentle Wash Cycle
Premium cotton thrives under gentle handling. Use the mild or delicate cycle on your washing machine to clean things like:
-
Men’s Solid Casual Shirt – Half Sleeve
-
Women’s Oversized Cotton Shirt
These cycles reduce agitation, helping protect seams, buttons, and fabric fibers.
4. Skip the Dryer – Air-Dry for Longevity
High heat shrinks cotton and damages its natural softness. Instead, air-dry cotton garments:
-
Gently reshape the Men's Sky Fade Checks – Brushed Cotton Casual Shirt while damp, and hang on a wide hanger
-
Lay flat to dry pieces like the Women's Heart Printed Cotton Shirt to maintain structure
Pro Tip: Avoid hanging heavy cotton when wet; it can stretch out of shape.
5. Iron with Care – Preserve the Fabric’s Finish
Cotton loves warmth—especially high quality variants. After air-drying, iron shirts while still slightly damp:
-
Set iron to medium-hot (150–180°C)
-
Use steam for Men's Slim Fit Cargo Pant
-
For looser cuts like the Women’s mini dress, iron inside out to maintain the fabric’s matte, soft finish
6. Storage Tips – Breathe, Don’t Suffocate
Store your premium cotton properly to preserve shape and freshness:
-
Hang dress shirts like the Men's Multicolour Floral Print Slim Fit Casual Shirt and Women's Cotton Denim Co-Ord set on wide hangers
-
For off-season pieces, fold neatly and store in breathable cotton garment bags—avoid plastic, which traps moisture
7. Handle Stains Promptly & Naturally
Act fast when spills occur:
-
Blot the area gently—never rub
-
Before washing, pre-treat with white vinegar or a light detergent.
-
Steer clear of powerful stain removers since they may fade or harm fibers.
8. Rotate & Refresh – Wear & Maintain Regularly
To allow the fibers to heal, give your cotton items a respite in between washings. For lightly worn items, simply air out on a hanger. Avoid frequent washings by steam cleaning for a deeper freshness.
