How to care for your Pima Cotton
LIVLY uses 100% Peruvian Pima cotton. Due to the nature of this incredibly soft cotton, you should expect some shrinkage upon washing. We add extra length to our clothing to allow for this, but please follow the care instructions.
Machine Wash 30°
Pima Cotton is delicate but it can absolutely go into the washing machine. Select a gentle cycle and wash with similar colors.
Detergents
Use a mild detergent and do not use detergent with bleach. Use cold or cool water to prevent fading.
Drying
We recommend air drying your pima clothing if possible. If you must dry, please do so in tumble dry low heat for best outcome. Avoid high heat when drying to prevent excessive shrinking.
Ironing
A cool to warm iron can be used if needed.
