DO:
- Handle latex gently: Avoid pulling or stretching too forcefully.
- Use talcum powder or silicone lubricant: Helps slide it on latex easily.
- Shine your latex: Use silicone lubricant or latex shine for a glossy finish.
- Wash after each wear: in a soapy and lukewarm water, then hang dry.
- Store properly: Keep latex in a zip lock bag, away from sunlight, and separate by colour.
