Where do you buy your pigment powders from?

[beauty bits]

I'm wanting a nice white to do baby boomers with and some other colours. I've looked at magpie glitters and they don't do a white. Any recommendations welcome x

ColourShack on eBay has a variety of pigments specifically for baby boomers xx

Hi

Pigments are pure, powdered colours that we can mix with our products to create new colours that we don't have.

You can either burnish them into the sticky top film of the shellac colour to create either another colour entirely (I particularly love the Lecente neon nail shadows over creme puff - which would obviously then be topcoated - as CND don't offer a neon range), or you can mix them into your Enhancements products at a ratio of 70:30.

For example, if you take 7 scoops of clear acrylic, you can add half a scoop of the aforementioned neon shadows in blue, one scoop of the pink shadow and one and a half scoops of glitter. For a sparkly neon-purple acrylic (or gel; the ratio remains the same). The pink and orange neons make a gorgeous coral, btw.

Does that help?
