Polish Your Vintage Patent Leather Shoes with Coconut Oil!

Add a glistening shine to your vintage patent leather shoes and make them look new again with just a little good old-fashioned coconut oil. Not only does coconut oil bring revitalized beauty to your hair, skin, and over all health (not too mention, it is great to supplement with it daily to prevent Alzheimer's), coconut oil will polish up your favorite pair of vintage black patent leather pumps beautifully! Likewise, you can even use coconut oil to polish the vintage wooden furniture pieces in your home!


All you need to do is get yourself a soft terrycloth towel and first dampen it with a little soapy water or just water by itself and delicately clean the exterior of your patent leather shoes to ensure that you have cleaned away any remains of dirt or other stains. Then take about a teaspoon of coconut oil and place it on the tip of your terrycloth towel and gently polish and shine your shoes with a light circular motion...and voila, you have revamped your vintage pair of patent leather shoes making them shiny once again and now they're ready for the dance floor!

You can view this 1970s pair of Naturalizer black bow tie patent leather pumps as well as my other shiny vintage patent leather ladies shoes here in my shop.
