Hi! I have some mica's that faded
I didn't know they would. I took the pictures right after I unmolded the soap since I like to take the pictures before they get all murky looking from the plastic wrap. Now my lime swirl soap which I used Super Green Mica in, is now a "mountain dew" color and my mangosteen soap which was a swirl of merlot and amethyst is now pink where the amethyst was
Now I have to retake the pictures since I have these listed to sell. I'm disappointed there was no warning about fading.
These have not be sitting in any light and I know it's not the FO since I have a soap sheet of the green I was making cut outs with, that had no FO in it. I parcially made this post to "warn" others of the fading affects of these two colors. I hope it isn't just me though! lol If it's not going to be amethyst or green then why bother. Now I'm paranoid about buying any mica but I love them!
Should I email BB and tell them they both fade quickly?
I did notice both of these have this ingredient in it : ferric ferrocyanide
Not sure if that makes any difference, but the others I bought aside from Antiqued blue (which does state it does not fade in the listing) don't have that ingredient in it. should I stay away from mica's with that ingredient in it?
