Rated by: Eva K in WI

Love Pearl Ex powders! They give a special sparkle to whatever project you're working on; embossing stamped metal, mixing with polymer clay, use mixed with paint, Modpodge, glue. Haven't tried it with resin yet.

Rated by: Carol R in Pahrump, Nv

I am a polymer artist for over 25 years and I use Pearl Ex Powers for adding color to my jewelry designs and I watercolor paint and add them to my paint too. Great stuff and it lasts a long time. You will enjoy it.

Rated by: Kelley in Florida

Wonderful! I have had no problem using these products. And what a large supply! Mr Art's prices can't be beat and the shipping is very fast!

Rated by: Mary A. C. in Weed, CA

Great creamy powder with vibrant color. I use it as a painting medium as well as a colorant for clays. Cleans off of work surfaces well with rubbing alcohol. Will definitely buy this product again and again.

Rated by: Beth S. in Page, NE

Amazing product! It has transformed my clay making!

Rated by: Liz K. in Los Angeles, CA

I was looking for some new colors for my oil paintings and saw these. I wanted something new and nontoxic, and these powders contain no metal chips. Unfortunately, I could not find much info about how they worked with oils, but I was pleasantly surprised. You can mix with another oil color and have a brand new "shimmery" paint color, or you can mix with a transparent blender, liquin or even safflower, linseed oil and apply as a glaze to give a color highlights. This product has given me a whole new set of oil colors. .. Great product, lots of fun and best of all, nontoxic.

Rated by: Connie B. in Arlington, TX

"powdered paint in a bottle"..this is a great product with so many uses. Can be combined with virtually anything. I smooth onto clay for a "faux" metal look (make sure to seal w/varnish),add to a glue line, mix with embossing powders for a great effect. A most versatile product with a great many colors. Mix with gum arabic & water and paint with them, add to glitters, faux finishing never was so easy... stamp w/ it, backgrounds & watercolor never looked so good....my imagination is running wild...get the booklet if your new to using it...great tips for beginners.

Rated by: Carrie R. in Atlanta, GA

I have tried others, but nothing gives the same rich effect that this product does, and I will not finish a work until I get this product into my studio to finish it!! A++++++

Rated by: gloria g. in Kettle Falls, WA

I love these pigments. Very beautiful colors. Very fine. They mix well with the cold wax, and hot wax medium. I use encaustic medium in my paintings and these are the best. I love the color range, and I give these pigments very high marks!

I love working with these pigments; amazing colors, wonderful in so many applications!

I use these powders to teach a faux raku class. I wouldn't use any other and Mister Art has great prices and fast shipping. I will refer my students here.

I purchase some of these almost everytime I'm on MrArt site; smooth consistency; consistent quality and content; love to mix small amt in spray bottle w/ liquid hairspray & lightly mist cardstock or paper!! Also great w/ the thickening medium sold by Mr Art as well. FANTASTIC, colors stay true & set well.

Rated by: Dawn M. in Falls Church, VA

I am so glad I decided to try the pearl ex powders. They work with all the different mediums I play with-polymer clay, resin, decoupage. My favorite thing about the powders is that their colors are SO vibrant and there are so many to choose from!

Rated by: Belinda S. in Aurora, IL

I love Pearl Ex. I can put it in paint for a great glossy color. I especially love the mink color with Microglaze. It adds a wonderful sheen to my finished artwork. I also love to use bronze, silver, and gold since I work with a lot of metals.

Pearl-ex Is highly superior to other similiar products. Great coverage! Beautiful results. I am very please with my purchases from MisterArt.com and will buy more products in the future.

Rated by: Hans v. in Provincetown, MA

I can add a bit of sparkle here, some shimmer there...depending on what I"m working on. It's a great way of adding texture and dimension to your artwork. Use a waterbased gloss varnish/medium or a waterbased satin varnish.

Rated by: Christine M. in Murrieta, CA

I bought the 32 set of pearl ex and to say the least was not disapointed in doing so. The prices at MisterArt.com are much lower then many places on line as well with in my community. these powders can be used with milti cfarts and projects.

Rated by: Joanne N. in Gladys, VA

BEAUTIFUL! Using with paints, glazes, they are incredible!

Rated by: lauren c. in moorestown, NJ

wonderful, creamy powder with excellent coverage...a great product

Rated by: Kathryn S. in Woodstock, IL

Pearl EX powders do fantastic things for glass beads. The color effects are very beautiful.We are now experimenting with using them on clay peices. I searched many online sites before finding them on MisterArt.com, and the selection blew me away. The prices couldn't be beat either. Great product!

Rated by: LouJean F. in Hubbard, OR

I use Pearl Ex straight from the jar applied to polymer clay before baking. It makes great effects. Some colors must be sealed or they can rub off after baking. A matte sealer is best for preserving color integrity of the Pearl Ex.

Rated by: Melissa R L. in San Antonio, TX

These are absolutely FANTASTIC and after spending an entire day checking prices on the net MisterArt.com had THE BEST!!!!!!

Rated by: Janette K i. in Las Vegas, NV

THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS! Everything people tell you is true! AWESOME PRODUCT!

Rated by: Sue K. in Indianapolis, IN

I have used irridescent powders for years and just recently heard about these from a friend. I tried them and they are far better than the others I was using. I use them mixed with oil paints to give certain feathers irridescent looks in my painting of birds. They really give them a great look. Other powders oxidize over time, these do not.

Rated by: jeanne s. in Oxford, NJ

I have always used bronze metallic powders and was skeptical about using the Pearl X powders. i was truly surprised that they worked so well. The Ronan Japan Gold Size that I use with the powders was super.

Rated by: Mildred M. in Kingston Springs, TN

Who doesn't love Pearl EX???? No one I know...And I know a lot of artists and read a lot of art magazines! Here is one product that lives up to its promises! I don't believe one could rate Pearl Ex too highly.
