Yes. Terial Magic is non-toxic, and its main ingredient is an organic compound. Because it is not starch, insects will not be drawn to your fabric work over time. Terial Magic is also cruelty-free. Terial Magic is water-soluble and soaks or washes out easily.

Will Terial Magic discolor fabric?
Terial Magic is made from an organic compound that has slight color to it and binds to the fabric, so if you do not saturate the entire piece of fabric, wherever it is binding, the fabric will appear slightly darker. If you are not going to wash Terial Magic out of your fabric, we highly recommend you treat the entire fabric piece.

Terial Magic may also change the sheen on shiny fabrics.

However, your fabrics will return to the original color and shine after it is rinsed or washed out.
