When I bend these, they turn white. Doesn't that mean that the silicone material contains fillers?

Yes and the description says no fillers which makes it really confusing. Maybe the only way to find out is try a brand that have been tested to be pure silicone by other people and compare.

These are molds. The company have to spray a chemical to line the molds so the silicone can be easily removed from the mold once it dries. You probably got a mold that hasn't been washed. These chemicals needs several good washes to be fully removed.

Yea I had the same question so I asked the seller over the phone. They said the original tip is white but it turns yellowish because of the solution itself.

My strips are very dry as well and do not seem to be working. I have used whitestrips beforeand they were not dry like these at all. I feel something is definitely wrong with these strips.

I wish I knew... I keep rewashing them, but it doesn't get them white again. Maybe soaking in bleach and water would work. Good lick!

They are fine to use. I have been using these for 3 yrs and the drops have always been white. I checked with the pharmacy and they said they wer ok. Hope this helps.

They arent quite silicone, but softer than rubber. Its pretty much an even mix.

I have the white ones but I will say that is probably normal due to the effect of the light on the different types of plastic. Same as under black light. When I wear mine under black light the certain parts of the headphones look lighter than others.

mine has no smell to them. I throw them in the wash with my whites and they come out nice and clean. I think I may have bought the wrong kind though. The last ones I had had a foam backing to them and these don't. If anyone knows which ones i'm talking about please let me know so I can buy the right ones.

I bent mine in various directions and adjusted them to what my needs where. Great flexability and no need to worry about their breakage.GOOD LUCK! :)

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

Okay, I bought these based on these answers. And they do show white. Maybe you got a different batch than mine. And these are really thin, as thin as the the stuff you buy from the dollar rack at a retail store. I am returning these. I also bought the ones by Green Paxx, because I have their silicone straws that are of great quality, and those show no white. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00DLBKM2G/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Hi Glenda, They are close to being that clear, but it appears that the outside of the cube has been polished in that picture. You have to use distilled water to get them that clear. If you use tap water, you get a lot more distortion. Also, there is a lot of residue (ice) around them when you take off the mold, so you would have to clear that away.

Silicone is naturally non-stick though a better term might be stick-resistant. Product that are very high in sugar are more prone to stick while baking and silicone that is full of filler is less non-stick. I have several of these Freshware molds and they are all very high quality. You assess the quality by the amount of filler. To see whether there is filler in a silicone mold take a flat area and pinch it between your thumb and forefinger. If it turns white where you are pinching, then it has filler in it and will be more problematic for you.

I'm not 100% sure, but they feel more like silicone to me. It provides a very good seal if that helps.
