Great Handbag Care Product: Lovin My Bags "For Handles Only"
Perfect for keeping your handles pretty!


Not too long ago, I came across this wonderful product from Lovin My Bags called For Handles Only. This cream is an oil inhibiting product that prevents naked leather from darkening. Now I realize that I lot of people actually like their handles to patina, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try this product. From what I have experienced, it does not completely prevent your handles from darkening. Instead, it allows them to darken much more slowly and evenly. No more yucky black spots where your fingers always grasp the handles! Definitely a must-have for anyone who loves Louis Vuitton! The only down side to this product is that it can only be used for prevention and maintenance applications. If your leather has already darkened, this product won't be able to help you.
For Handles Only is $14.95 for a 2 oz. jar or $26.95 for a 4 oz. jar.
Other products found at Lovin My Bags include:
Luxury Cleanser (For Balenciaga)
Luxury Cleanser Plus (For untreated leathers)
Feel Soft Moisturizer
New Shine Restore
Check them all out here: Lovin My Bags

Yeah, from what I've experienced with my pochettes, it works pretty good. I guess Patina is one thing... but yucky, gross black marks is another. That just looks dirty to me.

Re: Great Handbag Care Product: Lovin My Bags "For Handles Only"
I've heard this stuff is great for preventing lighter-colored Balenciaga bag handles from darkening too much; I think I need to get some, I hate the look of darkened handles so I go to great lengths to NOT touch the handles of my bbags as much as possible, but using this stuff would make me feel so much less stressed about darkened handles!

Hey alicia, I've never heard of that one. Shining Monkey? Have you used that product before?

Last week I received my new Rebecca Minkoff MAM. I will not use my new bag until I protect her from water stains. I use Apple products and "For Handles Only."

The leather protector for specifically hand painted handbags by Anuschka. It is used to help the paint not fade so quickly. In the description it says it can protect all fine leather protect (etc handbags,jackets,footwear). Its say not to use on vinyl or patent leather
