Thank You for Choosing Missconstrued Macabre Creations

You've stepped into a world of the strange and beautiful. Missconstrued Macabre Creations is an expression of the dark, the eerie, and the beautiful unknown. Now, to keep your dark treasures looking as timeless as the night, follow these instructions to care for your latex and rubber creations.

1. Cleaning

• Hand wash only. The machine is too cold for your dark soul.
• Use mild soap and lukewarm water—nothing harsh to disturb the delicate beauty of your piece.
• Rinse thoroughly—no soap left behind to cause streaking..

2. Drying

• Air dry your creation. 
• Avoid direct sunlight, it will change the colors or dull your latex. 
• No heat—keep it away from heat sources. The flames are not your friend.

3. Storing

• Store in a cool, dry, and dark place. Hide it away from the harsh world, in the shadows where it belongs.
• Plastic or padded hangers  (No Metal) or flat storage are best. Never fold.
• Keep it in a breathable garment bag to protect..

4. Maintaining the Shine

• For a beautiful shine, lightly coat with silicone-based lube or polish. 
• Avoid oils or powders—they’ll dull the surface..

6. Protecting Your Gear

• Keep it away from sharp objects—sharp nails are dangerous with latex. .
• Remove jewelry before wearing. Even the smallest snag could destroy the beauty of your piece.
• Don’t overstretch—your creation needs space to breathe, but stretching too far can distort it forever.

How to Put on Your Missconstrued Macabre Creations Latex Garment

Putting on your latex garment is an art. It’s a delicate process—one that requires patience and care. Follow these steps to slip into something dark, exquisite, and unforgettable.

• Dry Skin is Key: Make sure your skin is clean and completely dry before slipping into your latex. Sweat, lotions, and oils can damage the material.
  
  
• Use a Lubricant: A silicone-based lubricant or a latex dressing aid is your friend. Apply a thin layer to your skin where the latex will touch. This helps the garment glide on smoothly and protects both you and your creation from friction damage. I heavily recommend adding lubricant to the inside of the garment as well. See section 2 for more info before dressing. 

• Turn It Inside Out: Gently turn your latex garment inside out (unless it's a zippered piece) so the inside faces outward. This helps prevent snagging. Gently roll the piece on to your body if possible.
  
  
• Work Slowly: Be mindful as you stretch and manipulate the latex. This material is strong, but too much force can stretch or tear it.

• Slip One Foot In at a Time: For pants, skirts, or tight-fitting garments, start by carefully slipping one foot in at a time. Slowly pull it up your leg—don’t rush.
  
  
• Ease the Garment Over Your Body: For bodysuits or dresses, gently pull the garment over your arms and head. Move slowly, never forcing it.
  
  
• Don’t Rush: Take your time. Latex is meant to fit like a second skin, but it can’t be rushed. Patience is key to keeping it in perfect form.

• Smooth the Latex: Once it’s on, gently smooth out any wrinkles or creases. Never pull too hard—just guide the latex into place. If there are tight spots or areas where the latex feels stretched, ease up and give it a minute to settle.

• Zippers and Fasteners: If your garment has a zipper or other fasteners, do them up gently—don’t yank or force them. Always start from the bottom and work your way up.
  
  
• Lace or Buckles: If the garment has lace-up closures or buckles, tighten them slowly. Ensure the latex stays smooth and doesn’t catch or fold.

• Check for Fit: Make sure the garment fits snugly, like a second skin, but doesn’t constrict you. The latex should feel comfortable, not too tight or loose.
  
  
• Admire the Dark Beauty: Stand tall. You’re ready to step into the world in your MissConstrued Macabre Creation. Own the night. 

Tips for Wearing:

• Take it off slowly too—removing latex can be just as delicate a process. Always be gentle, and use some lubricant to help it slide off easily.
  
  
• Avoid sharp objects while wearing. You don’t want anything to catch or tear your creation.
  
  
• Keep it clean—the more you wear it, the more it deserves to be cared for.
