Materials:

- stain remover
- laundry detergent
- 1/3 cup of bleach
- dryer balls
- essential oil
Directions:
Step 1
Spot-treat your pillows to remove any stains using your favorite stain remover. After this, put the pillows in your washing machine, making sure you balance them out. Next, add the laundry detergent and 1/3 cup of bleach. Now, set the washing machine on hot and soak the pillows for one hour. After this, wash them on hot, adding an extra rinse cycle.

Step 2
After washing the pillows, air-dry them first, then put them in the dryer. Put it on no heat or fluff and set it for extra time. Now, add your favorite essential oil to three to five dryer balls generously and toss them inside the dryer together with the pillows. After this, use a pillow protector on your pillows to make them last longer, then check if your pillows have any solid foam inside. If they do, don’t wash them in the washing machine.
