Hello! I just bought my first Dior bag (Micro lady D joy) and I am so excited! However, I am so scared to use it since it’s white lambskin. I’ll wear it only with light clothing but is there a safe leather cleaner/conditioner/protectant I can use? I am afraid to put anything on it because I am worried that the white color might change/become yellow/green. Thank you!

Congrats! IMO just use and enjoy. Keep away from denim or dark colors that are not color safe and might transfer.

I have never stored my white lambskin in plastic or even a dust bag. I once had new ombré lizard discolor in a dustbag in a closet. So, IMO, use your beautiful bag

I let air circulate in the closet, but not sunlight. relatively low humidity.

Thank you so much! I will use it this weekend! I thought the light colored bags (especially white) are supposed to be stored in the dust bag since exposure to light can make it yellow over time?

Not sure. I did a search for threads that might have more specific advice

not sure if this has much advice, but there is some chat ( you could widen the search for pale lambskin, how to care

Congratulations with your new bag! I have also been debating whether or not I should get this bag or the mini lady dior in latte on my wishlist ! I do love the latte colour, but I am really afraid of yellowing. I do not know whether Dior white lambskin are prone to that, and I have not figured out yet why some bags do yellow over time? :sad: Sorry this was not any help at all !

No worries! Thank you for your comment! I wore it last weekend and I loved it. I carried the white dust bag with me so that I can place the bag on it at the restaurant table. I was definitely a little paranoid. I think I’ll try using a leather conditioner/protector or carbon pro after I get any stains on it first. I don’t want to accidentally use something when it looks perfect.
