How likely is it to drastically alter the color? My goat skin bag has a honey color to it. Does this product leave a sticky or oily feel to it?

It will darken the color. Once it sets completely it has a nice waxy feel, but this can cause a slight stickyness. For this reason I began using Fiebing's Golden Mink Oil, which I highly recommend. The mink oil causes some darkening too.

I just bought this and used it on my tan saddle bag. No color change at all and not oily or sticky. You can apply lightly and buff afterward to remove any excess. I was pleased.

I think it might depend on the type of finish your bag has on it now.It does dry a little leaving the most luxurious feel.I love it and would nothesitate to use it on any bag of mine.It would not drastically change the color but may deepen it a little.

I used it on my brown leather car seats and didn't notice any color change, nor did I notice any sticky or oily residue.

well, kind of. it's not like it has no effect whatsoever. i just put it in, with no gel or hairspray over it, so it doesn't really feel weird, just a little silky. but if u don't put product over it, it will rub off, albeit a little at a time, over the course of the evening, and certainly on your pillow. i don't care about that, i detest gels and hairsprays, so i just let it sort of evaporate as i wear it over the night. never had it stain my clothing or skin, i just wear dark colors and have never noticed a problem. hope that helps.

It does change a colour after being opened and used. I have one I originally purchased a year ago from a different supplier, have placed it in a jar and used it here and there. The colour is darker, I wish I can attach a photo of it, beige like, still has a pleasant, almost nutty smell, but I don't use it on my lips, so can't comment on a taste. It does have a shelf life especially when no additives are added, so maybe yours got humidity inside and went rancid or got mold?

Hello, how long have you had the bottle? I've only been using mine for almost 2 weeks now and it is still clear. It does have Hydroquinone which oxidizes easily by the air and can turn a brown color, does not affect the bleaching effect...but this bottle is pretty air tight. I've had a 4% prescription strength in a tube for over a year now and that is still the same color. As far as a black color I have no idea...sorry

the colors of dye are not liquid they are more like a paste. Unless the surface of the leather is actually split or peeling you may want to try something else.

It probably depends on the type and treatment of the material. Leather Honey did not darken our brown leather couch & ottoman.

Kristen, we are not really fond of it. It does not harm the leather but it is big, but I do have small hands. Also, it does get really hot in the sun and the texture is strange, it feels sticky.

It actually depends on the leather/dye. I have used it on my Coach Legacy and Madison bags without any change. I used it on my D&B; Florentine and LV bags on untreated vachetta and it did darken the leather. I hope this helps.

Whenever in doubt, test it on a small part first. Wait a day and see if it fades or rubs off. Color is not a property of the leather but of the dye used. The product itself is great on all the leather items I've used it on. I doubt if you will have a problem but caution if the dyed leather was manufactured outside US.

Yes this is wonderful but it is very sticky like honey so you need to bandage it.. I prob would never order it again because of this .. I do however use the oil , manuka oil and love that.. no sticky mess

Mine has a little bit of a funny smell but it is normal, not off putting it is also very light in color. If you feel yours is truly bad then I would call the company you received it from. Did you purchase from the same company? It may vary from company to company. I'm just a customer. Its my first time using it so I am not a expert in this field.

For me, there is a very light white coating as I'm rubbing it in. It fades quickly once rubbed in and given a minute or two to absorb and dry. I've been very happy with it. I have medium/relatively fair skin. Might be a different experience for those with darker skin tones.

It didn't crease or feel greasy to me. I keep it at work during the day and occasionally dab it on the outer edge of my eyes where crows feet occur and I haven't noticed any problems.

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

I'm not sure of the color? But I could definitely feel the tiny beads or "grit". I am no longer using it as I did not expect or read about this when selecting the product, and it is contraindicated for my tender scalp & related issues. I hope this is helpful?

I found it has a slight scent. The info sheet did read that the product will change color slightly over time, but should not affect potency. However, the color you see upon arrival/opening could be an indicator that the product has been sitting around awhile, just a thought. But mine was clear and mildly scented upon arrival and has slightly yellowed over time.

It has not colored anything I have applied it to. I used it on brown leather and lizard Lucchese cowboy boots and a light tan Italian leather purse. The colors did not change but the items were in good shape to start with.
