Sodium percarbonate
Another remedy that we recommend for whitening clothes that have turned pink is sodium percarbonate . This is an ecological alternative remedy to bleach and is therefore able to bring the garments back to their initial whiteness.

For white clothes that have become pink , just use a measuring spoon (or two, depending on the load) of percarbonate in the washing machine drum and proceed with a high temperature wash , at least 50 degrees , otherwise the percarbonate will not activate.
If you want to wash by hand , add a measuring spoon to a basin of hot water.
Then add your clothes and leave them to soak for a few hours or even overnight. Then, proceed with the common washing.
Your clothes will return to the shining white color again!
