New pants and waaaaaay too light leather

So my wife wants me to be a bit of a hipster and got me these new jeans that they say you should not wash and let it distress naturally and blah blah blah. They're some sort of raw denim.
Problem is, apparently they're bleeding color a bit. After a long road trip to Vegas and back, I've noticed that the left side of the driver's seat there's a distinct bluish tint to the cream colored leather.

How do I get rid of it without damaging the stupidly light colored leather? I'm afraid to even try anything without hearing from somebody who knows because I don't want to rub it in or make it worse.

Is that it? It doesn't really say anything about cleaner, so I would have guessed it was a leather conditioner.

That's half of it. U need the cleaner to. It's still called leather tech but the cleaner. You put the cream on after the cleaner. I have the same color seats and this is the best stuff I've ever used

Thanks! I'll keep looking for it. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like Amazon has it.

Had that happen when my jeans got wet and I sat for too long. I used zaino leather cleaner to take it off, took some mild scrub.
