If you twist or pinch the silicone does the color appear to whiten? I want to know if it contains fillers.

If you go to the Mastrad site the company explains that the product does contain fillers to provide stability. On the internet there are people posting to beware of silicone cooking products with fillers, as these are said to be low-quality. One has to take information posted on the internet with a grain of salt, as the bloggers may not have full knowledge of what they are giving advice on. Why not contact the company directly and ask them?

No, Orka seems to be very high quality. I have not had an issue with any of their products.

I have been using it for awhile now along with the gold VIP one and I don't think my skin has been whiten. It says it has whitening but my skin haven't changed and I love using their bb creams. I'm very light so I only use a little bit of this bronze to mix with the gold. They both have about the same effects and benefits.

S. Chant, for some reason my phone will not let me answer your second question so I will answer you here. I dont think the light\gel combo would make any difference. I just did some research and the light IS supposed to activate the gel. In my opinion so far, the light didnt do anything as I could see the gel bubbling on my teeth without it. I will try again tonight and see what happens.

It has never turned white when I've pinched or folded it. I didn't fold it over on itself - that would be very hard to do.

This is due to the silicone being mixed with a water based product. did you use anything else with it? A moisturizer, spf? This happens when silicone mixes with water based anything. Same with silicone makeup primers. Hope this helps.

It is in the sponge. Push the sponge against your face after twisting a few times

The cured silicone is an aquamarine color. It shouldn't bleed color into your soaps once it is cured. Thank you.

I used it and it looked like it took off most of the dye, but by the next day it was as dark as before I used it. I don't know what happened. Other people had the same problem as I did. Cj

Don't know what the "pinch test" is but I pinched one and it does not change color nor does it squeal. :)

Yes, if you pinch it real tight it turns white. I just tried it. What does that mean?

If the tooth you are talking about is a front tooth it might not match up after you use the whitener. I have a small "white " filling between my front teeth and you can see a little difference in the color. But in my case it is not a concern, if however it were an entire front tooth, I would be careful and maybe use a 15 or 22% gel.

The country of origin is China. But that isn't so important, the quality of the silicone is. We use 100% pure food-grade silicone, 100% BPA-free and do not use any fillers. Cheaper brands often use plastic fillers. Fillers can compromise the quality and durability of silicone. You can test this yourself by doing the "pinch and twist" test. Just twist a bit of the silicone, if it turns whitish, it's got plastic fillers. Pure silicone will retain its color. Hope this helps. -Suzanne

The package says refill rubber but to me the product feels like it is Silicone. I have a LaCross and Revelon curler as well as no name and they fit fine. I will tell you there is a difference in the different colors and I bought one package of green and one package of white. I perfer the white ones because the way they grip.Linda

The tops/lids do not turn white, but the tubes do. I checked all 4 of the tubes and each one turns white when you pinch or twist them.

Dear Taisha,Thank you so much for your inquiry. Yes. This is a one color BB cream and it will oxidize but it may not match with your skin tone. Anyway this product has the darkest color in our product line. If you have any other question, please contact us again. Have a great night.Best Regards,Katie The Babe

Apparently any oils/lotions interact with the silicone and cause it to lose its shape after a bit.

I am honestly not 100% if it will make it more noticeable. I believe it would evenly whiten just like if your tooth didn't have a crack. I have a small chip on one tooth and it whitened evenly so it's not noticeable. I don't know if you've used any whitening products before but it may make your cracked tooth temporarily more sensitive. (Depending on how the crack is)
