Mica pigments from Colour Shack

[x Fee x]

I'm confused! :confused I bought a set of colourshack powders and love them but they were quite dark and I now want neon and bright colours. All the ones I see say not suitable for nail art. Does anyone know why they aren't suitable, and is anyone using them anyway? The ones suitable for nail art are nice but I like the others better....typical! Can anyone send me the links for what they are using please

The pigments that state not for nail art, are not cosmetic grade and contain colorants not considered safe for cosmetic use.
I would not just use them anyway x

They also contain binders and are not pure pigment. I have the brights and some darker ones such as the purple rain set , Bella goth , even the darker ones look amazing over light colours of gel polish.

Hello!

It's very important that you get "cosmetic grade" pigment powders, as "craft grade" powders might cause a reaction on people's skin. I think the sets I bought from the Colour Shack are:

Shimmer me Timbers
The Black Pearl Range
The Summer Collection

Thank you for all your replies :green: I didn't think to use the colours I have got over light bases Durrrrrrrr! I have always used the ones that they say are suitable for the skin so I assume they are suitable for nails . Have had a good browse and found some lighter colours and ordered bella goth (I think that's what it's called) will be having a play when I get some free time :hug:

Ok so I've got mine but not getting very good results with them. I'm burnishing them into the inhibition layer but the colours are quite pale &; wishy washy. Wondering how you all work with them. I was thinking of putting them into my 2nd colour coat before curing like I do my glitters. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated x

I find they look best on a similar colour if doing a solid colour, but I do do two coats of colour before I apply them

 

[sallyyummymummy]

Thank you thats what I've been doing. My best ones are like yiu say with similar colours so turquoise with blue etc but when I tried a rainbow type effect it wasn't very effective. Got a quiet week this week so will play some more.
