Mica powder, on the other hand, sparkles and shimmers, giving artworks a glossy appearance. Mica is an organic mineral found in stones with shiny flakes, giving them a pearlescent appearance.

How Do Interference Mica Powders Work?

When applied to a surface, interference mica powder can create stunning and unique effects. Interference mica powder is a type of pigment that can be used to create stunning effects. In these pigments, finely ground mica particles reflect light differently depending on how the light is viewed. When this happens, the colours appear to change according to the angle of view, or even appear completely iridescent. This effect is known as interference.

Interference mica powders are widely favoured for their ability to produce captivating effects like glitter and sparkling surfaces, as well as vibrant colours that add shimmering brilliance to various projects. These powders can be combined with a range of mediums including resin, paint, varnish, or glue in arts and crafts endeavours such as jewellery making, card creation, or scrapbooking. They also enhance the texture and shine when incorporated into polymer clay designs. To achieve optimal outcomes with Interference mica powders, it is recommended to apply them on black or dark surfaces for heightened intensity.
