I've had this happen a few times and I have no idea what to do! Luckily it's been mostly with family, but how do you get the color dark enough without this happening?? I have tried adding black but I'm thinking this is only compounding the problem! I would love to hear how you get those deep rich colors without getting deep rich lips, teeth, and tongues!

thanks so much icon_smile.gif

Well, dye colors everything - table linens, lips teeth. I don't know a way around it. Fondant colors aren't as bad as bc.

airbrush sounds good but i think it is going to happen regardless...no matter if you make or the store...you always see colored tongues!!!! good luck!!!!

I like the airbrush too. Still colors mouths but I feel like it's less than the amount you'd need for all the way through.
