IT’S EASY TO DON | HERE’S HOW TO PUT IT ON
Putting on latex and latex care are simpler than you might think. To effortlessly glide in and out of your latex outfit, use talcum powder or a silicone-based oil dressing.
We recommend Dead Lotus Couture's Original All-in-One Latex Shiner & Dressing Aid.
SILICONE-BASED OIL DRESSING
Rub or spray the silicone-based oil on the inside of your garment, or directly onto your skin.
Dead Lotus Couture's Original All-in-One Latex Shiner & Dressing Aid will feel silky on your skin and can also have moisturising properties.
You don’t need a lot. A little goes a long way.
Some people prefer to apply the oil via a spray, so the product doesn't come into contact with their hands. If opting for this method, put down a towel to protect your floor and prevent slipping.
Dead Lotus Couture's Original All-in-One Latex Shiner & Dressing Aid is made with odourless ingredients that will also moisturise your skin, unlike other brands, and is available via our website.
Alternatively, you can use other brands available online.
TALCUM POWDER
Talcum powder is made from talc, a natural mineral. It absorbs moisture, cuts down friction and is often used to prevent skin rashes.
Apply the powder to the inside of the garment, or directly on your skin.
It’s best to avoid perfumed talcum powder.

Spreading talcum powder on the outside of latex will make it appear matte or dull. That’s OK. If you want to restore your latex lustre, just follow the steps in How To Shine.
