realsimple.com - 9 Ways to Whiten Laundry Without Bleach - Real Simple

A crisp white shirt or a perfectly cut white T-shirt are wardrobe classics. But have you taken a look at your white clothes lately? If they look a little grey or off-white, it may be time to brighten them. If you don't happen to have any chlorine bleach on hand, or if you prefer to skip the chemicals, there are alternative ways to whiten your laundry, including some all-natural methods.

Reasons White Laundry May Become Dingy

Color transfer from other fabrics, especially if you wash everything together

Detergent and fabric softener residue left in the fabric

Environmental causes, like nicotine or air pollution

Body oils and stains from food and drink

When it's time to brighten your white clothing, bed sheets, and bath towels, many of us first turn to either chlorine or oxygen bleach. But there are other ways to whiten fabrics. Most of these bleach alternatives work best on natural fibers, like cotton or linen, and should only be used on white clothing without prints or contrasting trim to avoid fading. As with regular bleach, follow the instructions carefully! If you prefer to skip store-bought products completely, there are also some proven methods for brightening laundry using supplies you may already have on hand, such as lemons and white vinegar.
