Care & Wear
While getting dressed in a skin-tight outfit, try to be very gentle by gripping the latex carefully with the inside of your fingers - avoiding finger nails and any sharp edges - and by pulling it carefully along a wider surface. Here are some other practical hints:
- The friction of latex rubber on dry skin can be eased by applying talcum powder to the inside of clothing. The disadvantages are potential itching and ugly traces from "run-offs" of the milky mix of the powder film with sweat and other bodily fluids.
- Some fetishists get dressed in the shower, but a good alternative is lubricating the inside of latex clothing with (grease-free) silicon or various rubber care emulsions available at auto supply shops or through fetish distributors. The slippery surface eases the dressing procedure dramatically and allows gliding into the latex garments.
- A simple trick to handle gloves and stockings in the process of getting dressed or cleaning them: Blow into the items like you do to inflate a balloon. The same can be done to assist someone with a skin-tight cat-suit or similar dress with tight long sleeves - just blow into the sleeve and any creases with straighten out.
- Undressing requires the same care to take a tight outfit off without risking any tears. Avoid pulling too hard on any particular spot! The best way: Take a shower and let the water run between skin and rubber layer to peal out of it. - Attention, slippery when wet!
