I have washed them alot the smell is lighter but it is just still there. I can smell it. I'm going to try the denture tablets that Ronna had said worked for her. I knew that some people took garlic pills but I had know idea that pain reliever could do that too. I learn alot of new thing on from you girls on here!

I hope everyone has a Wonderful CHRISTmas and Happy New Year!

Best of luck, Amy, with those bras! Worse comes to worse, I suppose you could just eat a LOT of garlic yourself and then you wouldn't smell them - and neither would anybody else!

XOXO, Libbie

might I suggest adding a bit of essential oil drops in your favorite scent to your laundry soap, or even to some dishwashing detergent then mixing that all together and adding to the washing machine and let the items soak for about an hour or so.

Amy, I make two soaps that will usually work when nothing else is doing the job. If you want to try them you can email your address to me. I'll drop them in the mail to you. You grate the soap, let it dissolve in warm water, and wash as usual.

Have you tried Borax? It takes out lots of smells.

Guess I wasn't blessed in that area to need a bra. Don't want a bra and don't wear a bra. Had to be a man that made those darn things. Bet if he had to wear it , he would have made the thing more comfortable.

Oh, Laura - I know what you mean - I am a fairly "aerodynamic" gal myself!

XOXO, Libbie

Laura, I think bras were invented by women like me. If I don't wear one, I look like two puppies playing in a feed sack! Trust me, wearing one is more comfortable than not.

Amy, have you tried to wash them with a little vinegar in the water? I use this trick with towels and it works. It will smell like vinegar coming out of the washing machine, but the smell goes away when dry.
