Could you buy anything more Purple? Nope. Grape Pop! Mica is actually a vibrant, Violet- Purple Mica, rather than a Grape colour. Lap it up! Mute it down with Pearl White or White Lustre, or add Golds, Blues and Pinks to take it into Plum tones. Grape Pop! Mica exhibits a medium level of sheen and is stable in CP and MP Soap.
For accurate measuring of Micas (especially if blending for Mineral Makeup) we now stock Pigment Scoops.
