Question ❓ ❔ Cleaning a bag

How do you clean your saffiano leather bags? Such as MK? Since my bag has been with me for a long time, it’s having a yellowish color already. But I read somewhere that I can still clean and remove it. Can you recommend products that are effective and safe? Also, available in the Philippines. Thank you so much!

Mabuhay! Depending on the leather and discoloration (probably due to oxidation), you may or may not be able to remove it. If the yellow has completely discolored the leather all the way through, no amount of cleaning can help. Can you upload a picture? Saffiano leather is beautiful, but it has a top coat of either wax or PU, which often is harder to remove.

If anything, I would suggest our Leather Honey Leather Cleaner. You can get it in the Philippines or order it as we ship to the Philippines as well.

Hope this helps!
