Choose What Latex You Wear Wisely

Be sure to plan ahead and give some thought to exactly what latex outfit and garments you are going to wear, especially on a very hot day. In the summer months, dare to bare and try to stick to wearing lightweight and minimal latex clothing and mix it with conventional items.

For the girls, be sure to wear items that are light, airy and not too figure-hugging. This will allow your skin to breathe and expel any excess heat which may build up.

Stay Hydrated

Wearing latex can cause you to get sweaty which can lead to you becoming dehydrated. Ensure you drink plenty of water and keep yourself topped up at all times. Replacing body water lost through sweating is an essential process for your wellbeing – just ensure your choice of latex fashion has a suitable zip for those bathroom breaks!

Avoid drinking too much alcohol as this is known to de-hydrate the body. If you are planning on having a few drinks, make sure you regularly top up with water.

Another great tip is ensure you keep externally hydrated. Using a small wet face cloth, run it over your neck, behind the ears, around the wrists and over shoulders. The water residue will keep your skin moist and the liquid will evaporate on your skin, keeping you cooler. For extra coolness, grab a glass of ice to make the water really cold!

Stay Indoors or in Summer Shade

It’s important to remember that direct sunlight can often cause discolouration of latex and that prolonged periods of exposure to heat will make the material brittle, fade and deform. Therefore it is advisable to not expose your outfit to UV rays for too long without a break.  Latex fashion care company, beGLOSS, produce a unique high shine gloss with added UV protection so you can not only be sure that your latex outfit shine in the summer, but that it is also protected.

When possible, stay indoors as it can often be cooler than venturing outdoors. Ideally, an air-conditioned environment is best where the temperature can be controlled and maintained at a cool level.

If you do head outside whilst wearing latex in summer, ensure that you stay in the shade wherever possible and avoid being outside at the hottest times of the day (normally around midday to early afternoon).

This tip not only protects you but also helps to protect your favourite latex items.

Take A Break (Both for you AND your latex)

Try to avoid wearing your favourite latex fashions for more time than you feel comfortable. If possible, take off your outfit at regular intervals and allow your body and latex to recover.  Mix and match latex garments throughout the day and vary your wardrobe alongside it – it’s amazing what outfits you can come up with.

As the sun starts to set, and temperatures being to drop, take the opportunity in the evening to switch out your outfit.

Latex Aftercare

Once the day (or night) is over be sure to protect your latex fashion garments and ensure they are cleaned thoroughly of all sweat and dirt which may have accumulated.  Be sure to wash your garments thoroughly and then hang to slowly dry.  Adding a cleaning agent such as the below from beGLOSS will help to protect and preserve your latex garment.
