How to clean sun cream from leather sandals?

4 replies

I have a pair of sandals in a soft leather, not shiny but not suede. They are pink, so there is some kind of colour on/in the leather.
How can I clean off smears of sun cream?
Please help.

Id be surprised if you can, suncream is oily and will be absorbed by the leather , you could try elbow grease spray but I'm not sure even that would work ( I use it for all sorts of stains, blood grease grass etc)

Personally I would try something like micellar water, a make up wipe or a baby wipe first.

You can’t sadly. You could cover the whole shoe to match…

OK many thanks. I will try a tiny bit first and see if either of your suggestions work.
They are my favourite sandals😪
