TRG Shoe Cream 122 Daphne 50ml – Nourishing Leather Colour Cream

Description

Revive delicate periwinkle-blue leather with a soft, flattering wash of Daphne.

Daphne is one of the prettiest shades in the TRG range, a soft periwinkle blue with the faintest hint of lilac. It is the kind of colour you see on elegant occasion shoes and delicate leather accessories, and it is also the kind of colour that quietly fades and greys with wear. TRG Shoe Cream in 122 Daphne is made to bring that gentle tone back. It is an ultra-soft, wax-based cream that nourishes the leather while it refreshes the colour, so soft blue-lilac pieces look freshly finished again.

I love this shade for dusky blue court shoes, pastel handbags and the sort of delicate leather that looks lovely but shows every mark. It goes on smoothly, dries quickly and buffs to a natural, understated shine. Because it is so soft in tone, it flatters faded leather rather than overpowering it, and a single 50ml jar lasts through many touch-ups.

Why choose TRG Shoe Cream Daphne?

• A flattering periwinkle-lilac blue. It lifts soft blue-lilac leather back to an even, cared-for tone, covering the grey, tired patches that creep in around the toe and heel.
• Nourishes as it colours. The soft, wax-based formula is enriched with beeswax, so it feeds and conditions the leather at the same time as it refreshes the colour, helping keep it supple rather than dry and cracked.
• Rich, even coverage. A little cream covers a lot of leather, laying down a smooth, consistent layer of colour that hides fading and light scuffs without looking caked on.
• A natural, cared-for shine. Once buffed, it brings up a soft, natural shine rather than a heavy gloss, so your shoes look looked-after rather than lacquered.
• Works on leather and synthetic leather. Use it on smooth leather and synthetic leather shoes, boots, bags and accessories. It is quick to dry and stays put for weeks between touch-ups.

How to use TRG Shoe Cream Daphne

1. Wipe away any dust and dirt with a soft, dry cloth or a soft brush so the cream goes onto clean leather.
2. Always test the colour on a small, hidden area first, such as the inside of the heel, and let it dry to check you are happy with the shade before you do the whole shoe.
3. Apply a thin, even coat of Daphne with a soft cloth or applicator sponge, using small circular movements to work it into the leather.
4. Pay extra attention to the toe, heel and any creases, where colour tends to fade first.
5. Leave the cream to dry for a few minutes so the colour and nourishment settle into the leather.
6. Buff gently with a clean soft cloth or shoe brush to bring up a natural shine, and add a second thin layer if you would like deeper coverage.

Frequently asked questions

What sort of blue is 122 Daphne?

Daphne is a soft periwinkle blue with a subtle lilac undertone, a good deal gentler and cooler than a true purple or a bright blue. It is ideal for refreshing delicate blue-lilac leather. If your shoes are a stronger purple, 123 Purple is the better match, and for a clean pale blue, 121 Sky Blue will suit you.

Will it cover scuffs on my occasion shoes?

Yes. Worked gently into the leather, Daphne evens out light scuffs and faded edges so your shoes look freshly finished. For deeper scuffs, apply a thin coat, let it dry and add a second light layer rather than one heavy one, which keeps the colour looking natural.
