Health & Safety

The Latex sheets used in our fashion are produced ethically and the producer conforms to the high ISO/EN 13485-2003 standard for Class 1 medical devices. Which most other Latex sheet makers for garments do not offer. Such can sensitize and cause an allergy. Despite that, due to the plant origin of natural rubber latex, some people posses special IgE antibodies within their immune system causing hypersensitivity to a protein in Latex.

So it is on you as a customer to make sure you do not have this problem before buying or wearing any Latex clothing. Since sometimes it is the cheap talc rather than the Latex which causes reactions. Always use high quality talc or fluid dressing aid like VIVIDRESS. Our products come to you treated with only the best quality 100% raw talcum powder.

how to properly handle latex

Taking good care...

is one of the most important parts to keep your shiny treasure in top condition for years to avoid damages and discoloration.
Keep it away from pointy objects, it is stretchy but cut easily.

Due to its natural origin, Latex should never come into lasting contact with crude oils, UV light, various fats and metals since they will stain or brittle the material after extended periods.

That means leaving your garment on a piece of oiled wood, storing it along cheap PVC or synthetic fiber based clothing will discolor or destroy your favorite piece slowly over time.

Luckily there is an easy solution making it simple to maintain:

Finishing touches

Let it shine!

As you may have noticed, Latex wear doesn't shine on its own. But it couldn't be easier to bring out its unmatched gloss with a specialized solution like VIVISHINE. Here's how you do it:

Toss your wet or dry garment into luke warm water with a little bit of shiner, then let it dry until it no longer feels wet & cold.

Afterwards you can immediately wear your garment or store it in a sealed plastic bag at a dark and cold place. If you want to store your unique little luxury for longer periods: Apply talcum powder on your clean & dried garment instead of shiner.

Never apply shiner on powdered garments, it'll make a mess.
Clean them first until all the powder is removed, then shine.

Remember: A noble material needs noble care. Treat it well & it will reward you with stunning looks in unmatched shine!
