100% Vegan, Cruelty Free, and Ethically Sourced Micas
Sparkle Plenty Mica provides the look of loosely packed snow sparkling in the winter sun. While you can use it directly in melt and pour or cold process soap, we found much of the shine is lost in white bases. However, in clear bases, the mica glitters like diamonds! It’s also fantastic for dusting the tops of your soaps for an accent of shimmer.
Sparkle Plenty Mica is not intended to color your soap white. Its intended use is to add sparkle to your final product and it performs best in clear melt and pour soap or dusted on top of your final product.
100% synthetic, this mica is eco-friendly and contains no plastic or metal.
