Abstract
A method of treating a wearable device to resist sebum, the method including providing a body having an elastic material having a polymeric backbone where a portion of the polymeric backbone is unsaturated and the body has an outer surface. The method further includes forming a crosslinked matrix within an outer layer of the body surrounding an inner layer of the body such that the outer layer has less affinity to sebum than the inner layer of the body.
