If you buy the leather bag from a manufacturer, then it would be wise to follow the instructions given by him for only enhancing the leather quality and appearance. There are a few everyday tips you can follow in order to make your bag look even more beautiful and stylish.

Have you ever considered for making the use of leather conditioner? Well, you just have to apply it after every couple of months. This helps a lot in everyday maintenance of your handbag. It would be great if you protect your bag from the direct exposure to sunlight or rain or dusty surroundings. Trying to prevent them from exposure would be difficult, so try out these proven hacks -

1. In case your leather women's handbag is wet in the rain, all you have to do is dry your handbag in a dry and warm area. You can use the radiator but try not putting on it. If you use the direct heat for drying your leather bag, it may result in a bag getting dried in excess. It later cracks and stiffens. If your bag is wet, empty the contents and stuff something in order to keep its shape.

2. You need to keep your leather bag dry to as much possible extent as you can. Keeping the bag dry at all times might not be possible, so you can apply oil or cream that act as a water barrier. You also need to make sure that the oil or cream you are applying is perfect for the leather type.

3. Treating leather scratches is mostly required. There are light scratches on the surface of the leather and there are hallmarks on the bags making your look absolutely unique. If you are the proud owner of vintage and distressed leather handbag, the scratches and the hallmark look great. You can make the use of sunflower oil or the vegetable oil or even the baby oil in order to gently remove the appearance of scratches.

4. If you care for some general tips, then here they go – Dye on the dark clothing can be rubbed on the leather light in colour. This can be extremely difficult to lighten the dark colour, so take caution while you do this. If you have just applied the cream on your hands, better wait for them to dry. Otherwise, staining may occur. Better keep the handbag stuffed in case it remains unused for quite some time. Better keep your bag dust free by keeping them in the pillow case or keeping it in a protective bag of cotton.
