Here are a few tips on how to handle your latex items when dressing. Especially beginners often have a hard time with skintight latex items, like latex catsuits or tight latex leggings. Long fingernails can cause considerable damage when put on. Therefore, please make sure that the nails are not used when tightening (take them flat in your hand) and make sure that the nails do not drill into the material. To be on the safe side, use a little more of a dressing aid at the beginning to put on your latex catsuit. With enough silicone oil between your garment and your skin you can easily strip your catsuit afterwards. Always with light pressure and a flat hand.

You may want to put on cotton gloves to avoid damage caused by nails drilling into them. When taking off latex clothing, damage can also occur. Especially if you take off the garment, especially a catsuit, under the shower or in the bathtub. A latex catsuit is a lot of fun in the bathtub. The material slips then particularly on the skin and gets easily out of control with which it can come to overstretching.

• Silicone oil to help put on latex item

The easiest way to get into skintight latex clothing is to use a dressing aid. The best is to use silicone oil. It cares for the skin and makes it pleasantly supple. This special silicone oil is a product which is used in the cosmetics industry. Absolutely odourless, tasteless and dermatologically tested, it has excellent caring properties.

Silicone oil should be used especially for transparent latex items. The transparency comes to the fore when you treat transparent latex clothing with silicone oil. For our photo shootings we only use silicone oil. This is how we achieve the best results in the appearance of our photographed latex items.

• Dressing the latex clothes with powder

Powder or talcum can also be used for dressing as an alternative to silicone oil. Some do not like or need a high gloss and enjoy the pleasantly dry, slippery feel of latex treated with powder. The previously silicone oil-free and powdered latex clothing can then easily be put on with talcum. With this method it is very important to slip quickly into the latex clothing. Your skin must also be completely dry! If you sweat too much when dressing, it will be difficult and without silicone almost nothing works anymore.

• Can I wear latex under normal clothing?

Wearing latex under normal clothing is a very exciting thing. However, the material becomes matt at the places where it comes into contact with the textile fabric (knee area or elbow) and can no longer be made to shine permanently. The best care with silicone will not help. Due to this wear and tear, the material becomes more susceptible to stretching after frequent wear at the worn areas.
