3. Cotton materials in white or light colors with logos or embroidery may appear bluish.
4. In the case of prints with a smooth surface, pigments do not adhere easily.

6. Store in a place away from high or low temperatures and direct sunlight, and out of reach of children.
7. Do not use for purposes other than the intended use.
8. In case of swallowing or contact with eyes, please consult a doctor.
9. Depending on storage conditions, cloudiness, sedimentation, discoloration, or odor changes may occur, but there is no problem with using the product.

Please be sure to check before purchasing.

Thank you for considering this product. To make sure you get the results you expect, please check the following points before purchasing.

1. This product is not a dye

LOVE BLACK does not re-dye black clothes black. The pigment it contains is blue. It compensates for the reddish tone that stands out as black fades, and its proprietary enzyme works on the whitish look caused by fuzz, making the black you already have look more beautiful.

2. Changes start from the first wash, but black does not keep getting darker

You can expect the color-correcting effect from the first wash. The whitish look caused by fuzz may improve as you keep using it. The black does not keep getting darker the more you use it.

3. Results vary by material

Absorbent materials such as cotton show changes more easily, while less absorbent synthetic fibers such as polyester show less change.

4. Some things cannot be restored

It cannot repair fabric damaged by strong sun exposure or friction, or bring back black dye that has already been lost. It does not return clothes to a like-new condition.

LOVE BLACK is a special detergent created to keep black looking beautiful.

Revives faded black, while suppressing fuzz and pilling, and also addresses dullness and discoloration. It keeps black deeper and more beautifully protected.

Since I have a lot of black and navy clothes, I bought this on a whim.
The result was great!

I was moved to see brownish, faded black linen pants come back to life beautifully in just one wash.
Black T-shirts also lost their faded look after about three washes, and the impression improved a lot.

Besides black, I also tried it on navy cotton blouses and T-shirts, and khaki T-shirts.
The navy blouse and T-shirt came back to life beautifully after one wash.
The khaki doesn't seem to change much, but it's nice that there's no whitish pilling.

Of course I'm happy the color comes back, but what makes me happiest is that I no longer feel that minor stress I used to feel when buying black clothes—worrying about them fading in the wash. Now I can choose black and navy clothes with peace of mind.
Thank you!

黒や紺系の服が多いので、ダメもとで購入しました。
結果、とても良かったです!

茶色っぽく色褪せていた黒の麻のパンツが1回で見事に黒く蘇って感動しました。
黒いT-シャツも3回ほどの洗濯で退色した感じがなくなり印象がかなり良くなりました。

黒の他に、紺色の綿のブラウスやT-シャツ、カーキのT-シャツにも使ってみました。
紺色のブラウスとT-シャツは1回できれいに復活しました。
カーキはあまりかわらない感じですが、白っぽい毛羽立ちがなくていいです。

色が戻るのはもちろん嬉しいのですが、
これまで、黒い服を買う時に、洗濯で退色することを考えるとプチストレスでしたが、
そのストレスがなくなり、気持ちよく黒や紺系の服を選べるようになったのが何より嬉しいです。
ありがとうございます!

I wash black, gray, navy, and even blue clothes all together!
Even without adding fabric softener, the clothes come out soft with nice body and texture. I really love using it. My clothes are wearable again for so much longer, so it feels like great value.

黒もグレーも紺もなんなら青の服も一緒に洗ってます!
柔軟剤入れていないのに柔らかいしハリもある感じになりとても気に入って使ってます。まだまだ着れるようになったのでお得感あります。

荻田昇Verified buyer

I've used it a bit and it feels good. Everyone seems worried about using it in the washing machine or color transfer to other clothes, but I think black clothes should be hand-washed basically. Thanks to the blue dye, the fibers feel more firm. I'm feeling the difference! Thank you!

皆さん洗濯機での使用や他の衣類への色移りを気にされていますが黒は手洗いが基本だと思います、
青色染料のお陰か繊維にハリがでます、
手応え感じております!感謝です、

Getting darker?

I've only used it once so far, but since we have a lot of black clothes at home I'd like to keep using it, though the price is high. The scent is nice, though.

Effective in just one wash

I bought just one to try it out, and it showed results after a single wash.

I'm buying again!

FAQ

Can I wash other garments together with LOVE BLACK?

Only black garments and blue-toned garments can be washed together. Other items cannot be washed at the same time.

What happens if I wash white garments?

White garments will turn blue. Please do not wash anything other than black or blue-toned items together with LOVE BLACK.

Can I wash printed T-shirts?

Yes, it’s fine. Prints are made of materials that do not take on dye, so there is no problem.

Whether something gets dyed depends on its material. Embroidery thread is cotton, and cotton absorbs water and color, so it gets dyed.

Non-absorbent materials such as the prints on T-shirts do not absorb water or color, so they do not get dyed.

Will cotton thread embroidery be tinted?

Yes — embroidery will take on a blue tint.

Whether a material gets tinted or not depends on the material itself. Embroidery thread is cotton, and cotton absorbs both water and color — so it will be tinted.

Non-absorbent materials like printed T-shirt designs do not absorb water or color, and therefore will not be tinted.

Can I use it on navy garments?

It is made for black.

Using it on navy or blue clothing will not cause any problems, but you cannot expect their color to be restored.

Can I use fabric softener?

Yes, it's okay to use fabric softener.

Which wash cycle should I use?

You can use either the standard cycle or the delicate (gentle) cycle — both work well with LOVE BLACK.

Why does the black color come back?

There are two main causes of fading in black clothes.

1. Looking whitish
When black looks whitish, the cause is fuzz on the fabric surface. LOVE BLACK contains a proprietary enzyme that removes fuzz and smooths the surface, addressing the whitish look.

2. Looking reddish
When black looks reddish, the cause is faded blue. Black is made up of a combination of the three primary colors, so when the blue fades, the red stands out and the black looks reddish. LOVE BLACK contains a blue pigment that addresses the reddish look.

3. Both
If both 1 and 2 have occurred, it addresses both.

Note
If the black looks whitish but not reddish, the pigment does not act as an effective ingredient. If it looks reddish but not whitish, the enzyme does not act as an effective ingredient. Because the causes vary by material, LOVE BLACK was developed to address a wide range of causes without you having to think too much about it, and to be as easy to use as ordinary laundry.

Does it work after one wash? How many washes until I see results?

You can expect the color-correcting effect from the first wash. The whitish look caused by fuzz may improve as you keep using it.

However, LOVE BLACK is not a detergent that dyes clothes darker with every wash. It cannot restore severe sun damage, worn fabric, or black dye that has already been lost. Results vary depending on the material and condition of the garment.

Does soaking make clothes blacker?

No. LOVE BLACK does not work through soaking — please use your washing machine's standard wash cycle.

Will it stain the washing machine?

Some color residue may adhere to the drum during washing, but it is mostly removed during the rinse cycle that follows.

If you're concerned, simply run an empty rinse cycle, or use your machine's tub-cleaning mode.

Do the detergent ingredients have any environmental impact?

Yes — LOVE BLACK is safe to use, just like any standard detergent for delicate garments.

Our formula is composed of ingredients that comply with Japan's Household Goods Quality Labeling Act and wastewater discharge standards, and can be safely disposed of as ordinary laundry wastewater.

Beyond carefully selecting ingredients with reduced environmental impact, we develop our products with the belief that extending the life of clothing and reducing disposal is the greatest contribution we can make to the planet.

On Environmental Responsibility & Sustainability

We believe the most effective environmental action is wearing the clothes you already own, for as long as possible.

Today, the mass disposal of clothing is a serious environmental issue across the apparel industry. Countless garments are discarded simply because "the color has faded" — even when the fabric itself remains intact.

LOVE BLACK is designed to revive faded blacks, so you can enjoy your favorite pieces for as long as possible.

Of course, our detergent formula meets Japan's domestic wastewater safety standards. But beyond that, we believe the greatest environmental contribution we can make is to propose a lifestyle of cherishing and continuing to wear a single garment — and that, more than anything, is what LOVE BLACK stands for.
