How to Clean the Inside of Your Black Skull Purse

You’ve found your perfect black skull purse and love pairing it with your favorite casual and dressy looks. Finding a purse you enjoy carrying it also means wear and tear happens…and it will need TLC over the lifetime of the product. Cleaning your purse is important for keeping germs at bay with over 95% of handbags containing bacteria.

Maintaining the look and quality of your skull purse is important, so how do you do that while giving it a much-needed cleaning?

What You Will Need

  • Small bowl
  • Soft toothbrush
  • Gentle degreasing liquid detergent
  • Microfiber towels (2)
  • Handheld vacuum (optional)
  • Hand sanitizing wipes (optional)

Directions

If you have a small, handheld vacuum or attachment, you can use this to clean out any small pieces of debris inside your purse. Using one of your dry microfiber cloths, gently wipe away any dust that is on the front of your handbag and any remaining particles on the inside.

After dry-wiping, prepare for spot treatment by taking your small bowl and adding lukewarm water and a few drops of liquid detergent. using the soft toothbrush, create a sudsy solution. Tap off any excess solution as you do not want the toothbrush to be dripping with liquid.

Carefully inspect the inside of your purse before spot treating with the toothbrush. Begin with small, circular motions around any stuck-on spots or stains being careful to apply light pressure. Resist the urge to rub back and forth or aggressively scrub.

If there are any harder-to-treat stains, you may apply a second application of gentle motions and let the solution sit for 5-10 minutes depending on the degree of the stain. Do not let the solution completely dry.

After you have treated the purse for any stains, take your second microfiber cloth and wet it slightly. Use the towel to gently press over the pretreated areas being careful not to saturate any fabric exterior or interior lining.

Once you’ve gone over each treated spot with a clean, wet cloth it’s time to let your purse dry. Set it in a cool area (a little sun is ok, but keep it out of direct light) to thoroughly dry before using it again.

Now your purse is clean, refreshed, and ready for your next outing!

Final Black Skull Purse Tips
