Buy Nothing New Month: 5 Ways to Refresh What You Already Own

That faded black top.

The white T-shirt that's looking distinctly... yellowed.

The jumper with a mark you've never quite managed to remove.

Before you replace them, could they deserve another chance?

Buy Nothing New Month is a great excuse to take another look at what you already own, and your laundry cupboard might be able to help.

Here are a few ways to revive, refresh and protect the clothes already hanging in your wardrobe.

1. Bring Faded Blacks Back to Life

Black clothes don't always stay black.

Repeated washing can make darker fabrics look faded and tired, even when the garment still has plenty of life left.

Instead of replacing your favourite black jeans, T-shirt, or jumper, Vamoosh Wash & Dye Black can help restore colour to faded black fabrics.

One wash. A wardrobe refresh. No shopping trip required.

2. Rescue Tired Whites

There's white, and then there's used-to-be-white.

Repeated washing, colour transfer and everyday wear can leave white fabrics looking dull over time.

Vamoosh Fabric Whitener Sheets are designed to help brighten white fabrics in the wash.

So before relegating that yellow-looking white T-shirt to the back of the wardrobe, give it another chance.

3. Protect Your Colours

Keeping clothes looking good isn't only about fixing them once something goes wrong.

It's also about protecting them in the first place.

Loose dyes released during a wash can transfer onto other fabrics. Vamoosh Colour Absorber Sheets trap loose dyes in the wash, helping protect your clothes against unwanted colour transfer.

They can even help you wash lights, brights and darks together with more confidence.

Less sorting? We'll take it.

4. Don't Let One Stain End a Garment's Life

Coffee on your sleeve five minutes before leaving the house?

Lunch down your top?

We've all been there.

The sooner you tackle a fresh stain, the better chance you have of stopping it from becoming a permanent reminder of your lunch.

Keep Vamoosh Rapid Action Stain Wipes nearby for those little everyday accidents.

They're handy at home, in your bag or when you're travelling, because stains rarely wait until you're conveniently standing next to the washing machine.

5. Look After Clothes So They Last Longer

The easiest way to get more from your wardrobe is to look after it from the start.

Follow care labels, treat stains quickly, protect colours during washing and avoid replacing something simply because it doesn't look quite as fresh as it once did.

Sometimes it doesn't need replacing.

It just needs a little Vamoosh.
