A magnetic in molten metal. In the jar it glows burnt orange, and under the magnet it draws into a band of burnished copper lit through with gold that flares as the light and viewing angle change, set hard against the deep black it leaves behind. Highly concentrated: a small pinch gives a strong, full coverage effect.

How to use
A loose raw magnetic powder, ready to mix into your own projects. Mix into a clear base or nail polish, apply your coat, then hold a magnet close to the surface while it is still wet and the pigment gathers where the magnet pulls it. Different magnets give different effects: a bar magnet draws the classic cat eye stripe, while multi-point and plate magnets give velvet and glass bead finishes. Hold the magnet steady until the coat sets, then seal with a top coat. Start small and build up. The effect is strongest over a dark base.
Ingredients
Silica, Titanium Dioxide (CI 77891), Iron.
Safety
This is a high quality raw pigment, not a finished cosmetic product. Avoid breathing in loose powder or flakes and work in a well-ventilated space. Keep out of reach of children and pets. Do not use on broken skin, and stop use if irritation occurs. If you are making products to sell, it is your responsibility to confirm this pigment is permitted for your intended use in your market.
Good to know
Colours on screen are a guide only: the finish depends on your screen, your base colour, and the medium you mix into. Sold by weight, not volume - flakes and shimmers are feather-light, so even a small weight fills a surprising amount of jar. Store sealed, cool and dry, out of direct sunlight.
