I'm having so much fun using these in my resin pieces. You just need a tiny amount to make something look super sparkly and iridescent. My only slight complaint is that some jars have much more powder than others (some are about half full while others are to the brim). It's a minor complaint though because you only need such a small amount (at least for my pendants) that I'm sure each jar will still last me a long time.
Be super careful opening them for the first time, there is an inner seal to each lid and I almost dumped the whole contents out of one jar just trying to open the lid. Just go slow and they will open fine the first time, after that they open perfectly each time.
Definitely want more blue colors so I may buy some individual jars.
These are indescribable!! Went off the reviews and purchased solely to color clear embossing powder and performed a test with the green and it turned out unbelievable!! Gorgeous pearlescent sheen and a lovely color...Extremely pleased with this purchase; to the most...The manufacturer's package was beat up and I was not too happy about that, BUT since this purchase was for my use personally, I ignored that fact because the pigment colors are 10 times prettier in person than the picture and they actually mesmerized me; fact!; so I just taped the box where it was dented/torn...The beautiful array of colors is magnificent!! DO NOT hesitate to make this purchase if you are sitting there thinking about it...$45.00 divided by 32 jars = $1.41 each...WHAT A STEAL!!!
Beautiful colors. Arrived quickly. Lost one star for not being as described. "Duo colors-680 Red/Blue 681 Blue/Green 682 Green/Yellow." Yes, there are three duo colors, but only one of these, 680 Red/Blue, was included in the set. The other colors I received are 692 - Green/Purple and 693 Violet/Brass. I'm content with the substitutions, but I would have preferred to know up front.
This product is excellent. I use it on my nails. For best results please use non wipe top coat. And rub it in with a makeup sponge. You can still mix it up with your polish or just use a little gel then sprinkle it on top then top coat it. U can mix it to with polish and paint. Love this different colors

I probably use these Pearl EX Powders in a way that most of you never will...I'm a Fish Taxidermist, and I use them for putting highlight detail in the paint job of some of my fish. I paint the fish with lacquer paints, and these powders react perfectly fine with that type of paint. When glossed over, they leave a very striking color and/or highlight. Many of my customers have asked "how did you do that?" I've never told my secret until now.
I really love these. I use them as additives to clear coat paint, to dye resin, and as a brush on "cold cast" style powered in my silicone molds. The only complaint I have about them is they are really hard to get off your skin if you are not careful... So just wear gloves and mask :). This product was suggested by a fellow prop maker and I really can not thank them enough for the suggestion.
Really great pigments, no clump, vivid colors, lots of variety in this pack too. If I had a complaint it'd be that the box is shrink wrapped & there's no vacuum formed plastic to hold them into the box. They sit in a vacuum formed backing inside the box but that whole window there is just open space once the shrink wrap is removed. Nothing to hold them in there. A clear sheet of plastic cut to size can fix that or your own vacuum former. I'm sure most folks just toss the jars in a bin or stack them on a desk somewhere. I just like wish I could use the original packaging for upright storage. More a personal gripe than a real complaint. All in all wonderful product and I've gotten some absolutely amazing resin art out of them so far.
Great price! Same day delivery but NOT as described- set did not include color 682 - duo green-yellow & box was a bit warped. 7/6/16 update: CSR advised me to reorder item since description lists color as included in the pkg. I rec'd pkg this this morning and color is NOT in definitely NOT included in the set.
This is a very versatile product. Once you get started using it, you think of more and more ways it could be used. Since it only takes a small amount to be effective, these jars will last a very long time. This set is a great value for the price.
