A garment, sheet or tablecloth that’s more yellow than white instantly loses all its charm, and you won’t enjoy wearing it anymore. Your prettiest blouse is turning more and more yellow and you’re sad about it – don’t panic! Thanks to a few tricks, you’ll be able to restore its radiance and wear it again with pleasure.
