Proper care is important so you can enjoy your MYMARINI for a long time. We would like to give you an overview of how you should wash your swimsuit or bikini and what you should pay particular attention to.
The fabric we choose for our swimwear is very high quality and requires special care. You should therefore follow a few simple tips when washing. One of the most common reasons for complaints is damage caused by chlorine or sun screen. These are often irreversible. However, if you follow the instructions on the care label and our care tips in this blog post, they can be avoided and your MYMARINI will stay colorful and as good as new for a long time.
How to wash colored swimwear
Our swimwear is available in seasonal, vibrant colors as well as in classic combinations such as black and white. The following tips apply to our colored swimsuits and bikinis made without white fabric. To keep your MYMARINI beautiful for a long time, you should follow these care instructions:
- Immediately after swimming in chlorine and salt water, you should rinse your swimwear thoroughly with clear water. This will protect the color and elasticity of your MYMARINI.
- Do not leave your rinsed MYMARINI in a bag or rolled up in a towel any longer than necessary. It is best to rinse it thoroughly again at home after transportation.
- If necessary, wash your bikini or swimsuit in the washing machine at a maximum of 30 degrees. We also recommend using environmentally friendly detergents and a laundry bag.
- After washing, hang your swimsuit or bikini to dry. Avoid direct sunlight – otherwise your styles will fade more quickly.
How to wash swimsuits and bikinis with white fabric
White fabric is more sensitive than other colors and therefore requires particularly gentle care. How should you wash swimsuits and bikinis with white fabric? We have also put together suitable care tips for you here:
- For swimwear with white fabric, you should only choose hand wash. Do not wash MYMARINIs with white fabric in the washing machine to prevent discoloration.
- Stains from salt water, chlorine and sun screen are best removed carefully with a little mild shampoo.
- After swimming in the pool or sea, be sure to rinse with clear water and do not leave your MYMARINI rolled up in the towel or bag any longer than necessary.
- Hang your bikini or swimsuit up to dry after washing and avoid direct sunlight.
If you have decided on a MYMARINI without white fabric, you can also wash your swimwear in the washing machine if necessary. The choice of program is important: It is best to choose a gentle program at 30 degrees. Your styles should never be tumble dried. Also avoid wringing out your swimwear. After hand washing, only squeeze out your swimwear carefully to remove excess water. If you want to iron your MYMARINI, choose the lowest possible temperature or use a steamer on a low setting.
And because sustainability is important to us: It's best to use an environmentally friendly detergent and a laundry bag in the washing machine, like the one from Guppy, to wash your swimsuit or bikini.
The answer to this is probably: as often as necessary, as little as possible. Removing chlorine and salt water residue from your styles after bathing with clear water is very important. Proper drying is just as essential. However, you don't have to wash your bikini or swimsuit in the washing machine after every swim.
Our styles are made from double-layered fabric. This means they provide reliable support, can be worn on both sides and gently shape the silhouette with the beloved "mini-shape effect". Due to the double-layered finish and thickness of the material, they take a little longer to dry. Beware of this and make sure that your swimsuit or bikini is completely dry before you fold it and put it in your closet or suitcase.
Most people feel more comfortable if they wash their swimwear before wearing it for the first time. We recommend a quick hand wash before wearing it for the first time at the beach or pool. This will remove any dust particles or light color residue and make you feel completely comfortable in your new MYMARINI.
How should you care for our ready-to-wear made from ECOVERO™ viscose?
As of summer 2024, we have added ready-to-wear styles made from lightweight LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose to our collection. The material is extremely comfortable to wear, supple and feels silky-soft on the skin.
- Wash your designs at a maximum of 30 degrees with an environmentally friendly mild detergent.
- Avoid using a tumble dryer here too and hang your MYMARINI styles to dry.
How should you care for MYMARINI designs made from organic cotton?
Our MYMARINI underwear and retreat wear is made from organic cotton. The soft material is particularly comfortable and feels light on the skin. To ensure that the designs stay beautiful for a long time, you should also follow a few tips for proper care:
- When washing in the washing machine, select a program at a maximum of 30 degrees, feel free to use a laundry bag for the underwear and only add styles with similar colors.
- Hang the styles up properly afterwards and allow them to air dry. We also recommend steaming or steam ironing pants and dresses.
Which care is best for MYMARINI LOUNGEWEAR?
All our LOUNGEWEAR is made from 100% Lyocel (TENCELTM). The material is very comfortable to wear and is particularly light and soft on the skin.
- Hand washing or washing on a mild washing program at 30 degrees with an environmentally friendly wool detergent is therefore the right decision.
- Avoid tumble drying and hang your styles to dry instead, so that the soft fibers can dry gently.
3. You can then gently steam the LOUNGEWEAR or iron it on the lowest setting.
