So I've been using the Apple Leather case for over 2 weeks now. It's for my first ever iPhone btw. I kinda hated the dark blue shade of the case. And it gets darker around the edges,possibly due to natural oil and sweats on my hands. And tbh ?35 for the case is kinda expensive for something I'm not too keen with using (the colour shade;I love blue btw). So I decide to 'lighten' the shade and make the leather grain pop out more.

What I did was I used warm water mixed with little hand soap and gently rub the case with a make up remover cotton pad. Man the leather is so heavily colour dyed,I can't imagine using it with white pants

I rinsed it with cold water and used a hair dryer on medium heat to dry it off. I switched between cold and hot setting alternately

Here's the outcome


And tbh, I actually love this pale stressed leather look more. It's only my first attempt hence why the unevenness. I might play around with it again later. But for now,the case is perfect for me.

Let me know what you guys think.
