It might be, but given that any white bags generally can or will yellow with age untreated, I felt better having treated mine. I do lots (and I mean LOTS

) of research and reading before doing anything to any of my bags so I felt comfortable. I also felt like the women who started and own HDL did a great deal of research too.
Other products I tried on vachetta seemed so “chemically” and smelled so toxic and were so flammable, I wanted products that didn’t smell that way or make me feel like I needed a haz mat suit to apply. The warnings were terrifying on those cans!
I don’t buy white bags usually, but the 2 MC pieces and the cherry piece called my name and wouldn’t let go (like so many here!). I’m very happy with my white pieces, they make me smile, they are perfect for summer and I will use them for years. I really am thrilled and feel very lucky to have gotten them. 🩷❤️💙💜🩵💚🍒
