    Default GFT Rose SC dyed my Semogue light PINK!!

    HI All,

    So, I was given some samples of Fitjar and GFT soaps and creams to try by my goto vendor. So this morning, I tried out the GFT Rose. It was wonderful. I face lathered with my Semogue 620. Awesome cream. I have finicky skin, and suffer from irritation more often than not, so my choices are usually limited. This left my skin feeling great! Only minus are parabens....Anyway, I always clean the brush after im done shaving, under warm running water, and then brush it on my towel to dry it.. I just noticed my Brush is Pink! I tried rinsing it a little more, but its still pink. Pink Lather, Pink Brush. Makes sense..I just don't know how comfortable I am putting pink dye on my face daily. Anyone else have this happen? Or did I get a bad batch? Because I really want to keep using it, the shave was that good, and my skin feels greatClick image for larger version.

    It will fade with a few more uses and rinses, but I kind of like the pink pig.

    With use the pink will fade to nothingness. Wouldn't worry too much.

    Stop acting like you don't enjoy the fact that it matches your walls

    I'm not worried. Its a $25 brush. I don't care if it turns Purple, I love the brush. Im guessing with use of more gft rose it'll stay pink..

    Actually you have a point. Now maybe my girl won't mind if I leave my shaving stuff on the bathroom counter top, now that it matches.....

    I used GFT rose cream every day for almost a year with a Semogue 1305 and never had any hint of color on the brush. Weird.

    I use that creme but it washes right out when I rinse out my brush.
