Imagine if you bought a pretty dress or a new shirt because you really loved the color. But after a few times washing and drying the piece of cloth, the color starts fading away.

An easily faded cloth can be caused by a lot of things, for examples like you wash your clothes using hot water, drying your clothes with washing machine in high speed, drying your clothes too long under direct sunlight, and pouring bleachers directly to your clothes.

That is why, to slow down the fading process on your clothes, you have to be extra careful during washing process. One of a lot of ways doing it is to use the right softener and fragrant for your clothes when you wash your clothes.  Softener and fragrant for clothes are usually come in thick liquid used for rinse clothes after they are all washed to make your clothes softer and have a long lasting smell.

But not all softener are good for your clothes. These are 5 things that you have to consider when you choose clothes softener.

1. Contains conditioner formula. Just like our hair needs conditioner, our clothes need one too to soften clothes’ fiber, so that our clothes can be a lot softer and will not cause any irritation to us.
2. Gives a long lasting scent. With our existing encapsulated formula, the good smell on your clothes can be captured there and lingered. Even your clothes are put inside your drawer; the good smell sensation will linger by only giving a soft rub to your clothes. The friction will ‘crack’ the micro capsule and bring out the perfume.
3. Contains color protection formula. Rinsed water that still contains bubbles from the detergent and has more turbid color shows us that the water still has detergent in it. If we let that happen, the remaining of detergent can cause the color of our clothes fade easier. Color fading process on clothes can also happen faster when clothes are dried directly under the sun. So if you don’t want the color of your clothes fades away, you have to choose the right fabric softener which contains color protection formula.
4. Contains antiseptic formula. Are your clothes usually smelled musty or moldy because they have been in your drawer for a really long time? The moldy and musty smell emerges because of certain germs left on your clothes when you wash them. That is why it is important to choose the right fabric softener which contains antiseptic formula so that it can clean your clothes thoroughly from bacteria that can cause musty or moldy smell.
5. Using a one time rinsing formula. 1x rinsing formula will make the detergent gone after one time rinsing, so it will make rinsing process a little bit easier and it will save a lot of time, water and your energy while washing your clothes.

Fabric softeners sold in the market nowadays are highly competitive and offer a lot of advantages that we should pay attention to. One of fabric softener that can give all the requirements mentioned before is Kispray conditioner 1x rinsing. This new family from kispray comes in two variants, sensation Pink and Blue. 1x rinsing formula also makes kispray conditioner not a usual fabric softener.

On a trial we did before, it is proved that after 15 times washing using kispray conditioner 1x rinsing, your clothes will stay in their original color and will not fade away. This proves that kispray conditioner 1x rinsing protects your clothes so the color will not fade away. So, you should think it thoroughly before you choose clothes softener for your family.
