Meshing Around Bag

Hand washing your faux leather and fabric handbags won't take much of your time.

Faux Leather: Place it under cool or slightly warm water and dab at the soiled areas with a microfiber towel. The water will lift any dirt, just like your washing machine. Afterward, gently ring your faux leather until it's damp and hang it up to dry.

Fabric: Handwash or machine wash your bag on "gentle cycle" (if you have exterior hardware), place your handbag in a Mesh bag to protect your machine and the bag hardware.  No chlorine bleach should ever be used on your handbag. 

What NOT to use..

Whatever the stain, don't use bleach. Bleach is the most drying product you can put on faux leather or your fabric.  It will affect the structure of the material and it will become more susceptible to future marking.

Drying out?

Faux Leather: If the garment is dry, use a tiny amount of baby, olive, or coconut oil on a soft cloth to condition the bag. This will keep the faux leather supple, prevent cracking and peeling.
