Forgot to rinse your swimsuit after a dip in the pool or a day at the beach? It can quickly develop a musty odor that's no fun to deal with later.
Thankfully, as swimwear enthusiasts know, there's a straightforward, proven trick to keep it fresh: baking soda. Here's how it works.

1. Right after leaving the pool or beach with your wet swimsuit.
2. Pour a cup of baking soda into your swimsuit bag.
3. Place your still-wet swimsuit inside the bag and carry it home.
And just like that, you've prevented that musty smell! No more unpleasant odors from neglected swimsuits.
Once home, rinse your swimsuit and gently rub it with the baking soda that's adhered to it. This not only banishes any lingering smells but also restores its softness and flexibility.
