Its shimmering black tone works especially well in celestial themes, evening-inspired artwork, monochrome palettes, formal stationery, and projects where a dark metallic finish adds depth and polish.

How to use

Add clean water to the surface of the pearlcolor and allow it to activate properly before use. Please use more water and dissolve "Black Pearl" well until the colour becomes really creamy. Once softened, stir gently with a brush until the shimmer is smooth and ready to apply. A well-activated, creamier mixture will help reveal its elegant black finish and subtle sparkle more clearly.
