How to Keep Your Designer Handbags Looking Like New
Designer handbags such as Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga, Chanel and Dior to name a few, are often seen as a symbol of status, style and sophistication. They are not only a fashion statement but also a significant investment both financially and emotionally. With proper care and maintenance, your designer handbags will not only last longer, but also retain their beauty, colour and value.
Unfortunately, when a handbag is neglected it can lead to problems such as mould, colour wear, and dye transfer. To avoid these issues it is recommended seeking out effective care and maintenance products to use on your handbag from the very beginning. This is where Bagsamoré steps in. With over a decade of experience in leather care and restoration of designer handbags, Bagsamoré has put together a perfectly curated set of products which should be all you need for the ultimate handbag care routine.
Mould cleaning
Mould is a common problem with leather handbags, especially if they are stored in a damp or humid environment, which can be quite common in some parts of Australia. Mould can cause permanent damage to the leather if left untreated. The spores will eat in to the leather leaving irreversible staining on the leather or fabric, so it's important to take care of it as soon as possible. If you notice mould on your handbag or any other items in your closet for that matter, we have the product for you! Bagsamoré Luxe Multi Cleaner cleans all types of surfaces from mould and bacteria, killing the spores to stop if from returning. This easy and safe to use product really is magic!

Colour Wear
Another common problem with designer leather handbags is colour wear. Over time, depending on how regularly you use your bag, the leather can fade or discolour, especially if it's exposed to the sun or harsh chemicals. To prevent this, avoid exposing your handbag to direct sunlight by storing it away in is dustcover when not in use. While you are using your bag we recommend you use Bagsamoré Luxe Leather Protect which protects leather from colour fade from UV rays. Use of incorrect products on your bag such as baby wipes, or alcohol wipes can cause the finish to break down which will also cause colour war and fade over time. There are a lot of old wives tales on the internet, that’s why we are here to separate the facts from the fiction.

Dye transfer
Dye transfer is another problem that affects leather designer handbags. This occurs when the dye from another item, such as a pair of jeans, transfers onto the leather.
