To use this bikini bottom, simply slip it on like you would any regular swimwear. Make sure it fits comfortably around your hips. When it comes to maintenance, it's best to hand - wash it in cold water with a mild detergent after each use. Avoid using bleach or harsh chemicals as they can damage the fabric. After washing, gently squeeze out the excess water and lay it flat to dry. Don't wring it, as this can cause the fabric to stretch out of shape. When not in use, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the color from fading.
