Review update - aliexpress travel notebook

I did it, I moisturized the leather to see if the scratches would buff away easier. I like the look of it now, the leather is darker and I can still see the colour variations. Sadly right after I moisturized the leather it became much easier to scratch or at least more noticeable because the scratches are really light and the leather is now dark. I'm letting it dry  a bit now and will see how it wears over the next week. 

Here are pictures of the now darker leather.
