CurlyRB 0 Share Posted August 19, 2003 If you can help it, don't put BP on your neck or under your jaw line. Also, I stay away from purple or dark blue shirts because, even without BP, my skin acid? turns them a pinkish color. The effect is worse on cotton or lower qulity clothing. I do have one dark purple shirt made of rayon and stretchy stuff that hasn't been effected. It's mainly cooton that can't withstand the BP. Also, you may consider wearing a white undershirt to help keep your skin off the dark fabric. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CurlyRB 0 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Also, button downs will help. That way, your face won't touch your clothes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
peterpandora 0 Share Posted December 21, 2003 It might have nothing to do with BP. I have had multiple shirts ruined, long before I ever tried the regimen. It could just be the type of fabric. You could try dry-cleaning them, or buying a dryer-only product at your supermarket. I personally use clearasil with BP, and I'm positive it has never bleached anything, if that's any help.

Rabb1t 0 Share Posted December 21, 2003 apply with no shirt and wait about 10-15 to make sure it is completely dry and put your shirt back on? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SCAR 4 Share Posted December 21, 2003 i had a AE T and around the collar its all bleached by BP Quote Link to post Share on other sites
smee 0 Share Posted December 21, 2003 I think it depends a lot on the type of fabric and the type of dye on the shirts. I have 2 shirts that I wear around the house only now because they're bleached all over. I think they get bleached even from the BP vapor or something. My other shirts never get bleached.
