Pearl Lustre Mica Powder - Violet is a synthetic pearlescent mica powder used to add a purple shimmer to soaps, bath bombs, makeup, and other cosmetic and personal care formulations. It is designed for decorative colour work where you want a luminous, light-catching finish rather than a flat pigment effect. Although it can tint water, it is not water soluble, so it should be dispersed properly for the type of formula you are making. This shade is especially useful in floral, dreamy, jewel-toned, and bold cool-toned colour palettes.

♡ Why we love it: Violet brings colour and shimmer with a lovely sense of depth. It is a great choice for makers who want a purple that feels versatile and polished, and it blends beautifully with other mica shades for custom lilacs, plums, and dramatic statement tones.
