Precautions:
- Before completely cleaning your bag in this way, test on a very small, invisible part of the bag, especially if the leather is camel or light in color. If your leather reacts well, without leaving a trace, you can clean your entire bag with this trick.
- This grandma's trick for washing leathers is not suitable for faux leather bags or suede bags.
To maintain your leather bag, you did not need very complicated products. And even less expensive products!
An egg white, turpentine, a little vinegar, and some rags... the total cost of our trick does not exceed 10 euros.
Whereas if you had been looking for specialized creams or balms to maintain your bag, you would have come out of the supermarket shelves with easily €15 less in your wallet.
And as you know, maintenance of leather goods is done several times a year. Multiply...and you have the amount of savings.
Not to mention the fact that you didn't have to buy another bag, which would have cost you even more!
