What about slightly darker black

I got a new black T-shirt a little while back, and found that when I put it on in the mornings, if I'm not careful, I'll get a white mark from moisturiser on it by accident.

Doesn't happen with my old black shirts for some reason ...

Cold water wash for everything except towels and underwear, baybee

Haven’t separated by color in like, ever

Why except towels and underwear? Asking for a friend.

Shout makes these things called Color Catchers. They're little cloth sheets that go into the washer and absorb color that makes it into the wash. They work surprisingly well!

I haven't had new clothes in years. This shit don't matter on old clothes, it all goes in the same wash for me. I will even throw 2 cap fulls of bleach into its compartment every now and then and nothing happens. It's to diluted once it mixes with the water to mess it up and you still get that nice clean bleach smell after.
