this is what i did and it works. mine was dirty from cig ashes and all kinds or stuff.

put your purse inside a pillow case, make sure it's closed off.. and wash it on a very slow and light cycle. then whichever lowest sensitive dryer setting you have. or you can dry it for like 30 mins in the dryer and let it air dry. mine came out just fine, didn't loose color or anything.
 
Hello and Merry Christmas to all! ~Especially for those who have received or maybe will receive a juicy bag for the holidays 

I own a pink juicy bag too and refused to wear it for a good amount of time because my aunt was packing and decided to put my bag in the back where some dirty item rubbed off on it and it had a stain near the back 

Here is my solution*** (I’ve done it and am quite happy with it )
Since I worked at Buildabear (retail children’s store where they sell stuffed animals) we sell this “bear cleaner” for kids who play with their fuzzy stuffed animals and get dirt stains on them… instead of having to throw them in the washer where their fur gets kinda matted at times you spray this cleaner on ($6.00) and scrub it with the brush that we also sell! Mind you this is for minor dirt stains but of course if your picky like me you can’t stand the thought of a dirt stain no matter how minor on your nice pink fluffy bag staring at you in the face!

I also highly HIGHLY recommend the brush from the UGG cleaning set. Go to any UGG store and request the kit because the brush in there has a whole bunch of great sides that I used on my bag! i.e. the brush of course that I used to rub in gentle to moderate rubs in a circular motion (like your brushing your teeth). So spray spray in area and then brush brush brush! Brush in one circular motion and then reverse it. I did this (and it worked out great for me!) because the way I saw it is that when you brush your bag clean, the SECOND part you need to worry about is the texture of the bag staying fluffy! Cause if your like me too, you can’t stand the sight of your bags texture looking like an old used hand me down when you just freaking BOUGHT IT! –What a Downer!

Now I said use the bear cleaner if you want to just touch up from those minor dirt stains… however if there’s kind of a bigger problem you can use further drastic measures from what’s in that UGG cleaning kit (little brown box of stuff like conditioner and cleaner etc.). You take a cup put some water in it and pour in some of the bottle of the cleaning solution (just a bit to even the water out) and mix it… that will be your cleaning solution instead of the spray if your bag needs further help. Then you get kind of like a rag, dip it in the water solution and ring it (squeeze all water out as much as possible). Then you take the damp rag and scrub out that stain as much as you must. Now for me… I was desperate at that point and was rough with it and my bag looks pretty good to me so I guess don’t be too afraid to get in there and get the job done since I’m not sure how long your going to take sitting there “patting” it out. After that, same procedure with the ugg brush and do what you see fit! Make sure after tho that you rub in circles one way, then the other***

One more thing…. Make sure your rubbing till its dry or maybe stand in front of the cold air conditioner with it because I wanted to make sure it came out with the same texture as it had before so I brushed it and fussed with it till it dried like how I wanted it! DONE! :D

Yeah I know im picky… but those purses aren’t cheap!

Hope this has been helpful  let me know if you need extra help tho this is pretty much all I did  [email protected]
 
Thanks for that. My black velour with pink dahlias has light blue pom poms, which are looking grubby. They are not made of velour. Is it safe enough to wash them with soap and water? Just run them under a facet?
 
Hi. Got this straight off the Juicy site through a live chat with an operator there.

Here are the cleaning instructions for velour bags:
Gently scrape away any excess solid matter using a dull edged spoon. Use a solution of mild, bleach-free detergent, 1 part detergent to 30 parts water. Pre-test the cleaning solution in a small, inconspicuous area of the handbag. Apply a small amount of cleaner to a clean, soft, white cloth. Beginning at the edge of the stain and working towards the center, while turning the cloth often, you may blot (don't rub!) the stain. Rubbing the stain will roughen the delicate fiber and leave the fabric looking worn and faded. After cleaning, "feather" the edges of the spot by brushing gently with a dry cloth. Dry the wet area quickly with a fan on cool setting, as this will help to prevent a ring from forming around the spot. If your first attempt does not remove the stain, you may want to repeat the steps again.
Thank you!!!! You saved my bag :)
