To maintain the longevity of your Andie pieces, you should pre-rinse your suit in fresh water before jumping into a pool or the ocean. This will help maintain the swimsuit fibers, as salt, chlorine and other particles in saltwater cling to dry suits.  After each wear, immediately you should rinse them in cold water to remove saltwater, chlorine, sunscreen, and natural body oils. To wash your swimsuits, the company’s advice is to hand wash them in cold water using a gentle laundry detergent or hand soap. As the last step, lay them flat to dry. For intimates, the company’s care instruction is to machine wash in cold water with like colors, then flat dry.
