Antimatter - Navy Blue Grape Purple Multichrome Chameleon Powder
$2.42
This is a really amazingly dramatic, multichrome aurora fine flake/powder. ANTIMATTER! It is intensely pigmented, and shows off its intense color shifting qualities mainly on dark backgrounds. I've found that it is best mixed into creative mediums like resin or paint bases to show its characters best. It's truly a multichrome multicolor pigment that ranges from navy blue to dark grey, to deep purple and shifts to maroon magenta and up! When dusted into silicone molds, the flake doesn't seem to stick as well as our Ultra Fine Chameleon pigments, but it does render a neutral grey tone with the reflective tones of the pigment, as the right side resin ball sample shows. I haven't seen anything like it. The powder is a little larger in particle, similar to our Jelly Chameleon pigments, that resembles very fine flake which makes it super glamorous and sparkly, is soft to the touch and blends flawlessly. Absolutely stunning as nail art or used in eye makeup or many other creative mediums. Cosmetic grade, but can be used in a multitude of creative art mediums such as resin, clear paint bases, polymer clay and varnishes. Endless application possibilities. This color blends amazingly as a background base for layering other pigments or flake with as highlighters!! Particle size of the pigment is between 60-120 microns.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are your pigments cosmetic safe?
Many of them are! Each listing gives specific uses or exceptions to a particular pigment, so look for that in the description section. When in doubt, feel free to send a convo.
Can I use your pigments in resin or polymer clay?
YES! As a working artist, I love the versatility of using unique pigments across many creative mediums, so I only stock those that are solvent safe, are non-fading, are safe for heated mediums up to at least 400F and of course are non-toxic to our health. All you need is a transparent carrier to suspend the pigments in, or raw polymer clay to put them on the surface, and you're good to go!
What about nail art?
Of course! All of our pigments are suitable for nail art and will create amazing unique effects. I would recommend using the flakes or powders with a gel coat medium and UV cure lamp for instant results.
Can I use your pigments to embellish something edible?
Although our flakes and powders are non-toxic, they should not be considered edible or ingestable. I would stick with food-quality products only.
Why are some pigments called "high temp", but not others? Do I need anything special to use these?
The original Lumiere Luster line is a new dichroic-like product for lampworking artists, such as myself, which is where the flake's high temp designation originated. But I found that they are just as amazing to work with in other mediums, not just for lampworkers! However, for lampwork or glass enamel use, use only those that are in our "high temp" section to ensure they're safe for glassworking temperatures (1000+ degrees F). You can also download a copy of my free PDF tutorial here: http://www.jetagestudio.com/PDF/Lumiere%20Lusters%20tutorial%20JetAge%20Studio.pdf
If you're not a glassworker, the "high temp" designation is pretty much meaningless, so you're safe to use ANY of the pigments in any medium you like, with beautiful results.

Why are these flakes of yours so "fly-away"?
We get that a lot! It's the nature of this particular product. Kind of an industrial marvel if you ask me how lightweight they are! We like to fill the jars right up to the top so it might be a little messy when you first open the jars; we sincerely apologize for this. Just be sure you aren't working with the flakes around any open windows or fans and it should cut down on how much they fly around. Remember: Art is Messy! 😁
Can your flakes be used on paper or scrapbooks?
Yes. There's quite a few awesome YouTube videos out there about paper embellishment with metallic foils or gilding flakes. Our flake pigments (and powders as well) will work exactly the same as metal leaf or foils. Take a look at this great video for some inspiration and a how-to use with different types of "glues" to stick down the flakes: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtq_UeJddyc
In addition to that, we've had some watercolor artists ask if they can make custom watercolor pan pigments with our fine powders and the answer is "yes"! It might take a little fiddling to find the right ratio of pigment to binder, but that's where your creativity comes in. Experiment with our ultra fine Discotek powder or ultra fine super shift powders!
Can I use your pigments in soaps and lotions?
Most likely, yes. I don't know all the different base formulas in soap arts but most of our mica based pigments should work just fine and are cosmetically safe. I would not recommend our chameleon flakes, however, unless it is used as a surface finishing touch (not mixed in). Testing is recommended for coloring and shimmer effects desired.
