WOW! I LOVE this so much!

I have the same mica powders. I've been making my own colors for almost 10 years. But, a little mica goes a LONG way. You may not even need as much as you are using. The color and payoff would still be the same even if using a bit less. And I've learned with mica I don't even have to add white to make it opaque.

❤ thank you for the display. Gorgeous colors and great video. God bless you!

Love it... I've made 72 with pigment and mica powders and glitters... Also glow powders....

From what I just watched, looks like you should be starting your own acrylic business. Just a thought that I hope comes into fruition. Well done 🙌🏽👏🏾👏🏾

I make a lot of my own dip powders! The only thing I do is put my model ones acrylic powder in my ninja and make it a bit “finer” for my dip powders. Mica powders are “shimmery” where as chalk seems more “matte”, if that makes sense? Vinyl glitters don’t “run” and many companies sell them. I love these colors!🥰

Can you imagine those mica powders in a gel base? 😍😍😍

My favorite has to be either that teal (19) or that bright spatkly grass green💚💚💚

Thanks for your upload. Try using mortar and pestle to blend the colors together with the acrylic powder, by so, there won't be any streaks of colour on the acrylic..❤❤❤❤❤

The early crew. 😁🦄🔥 The first dark blue is like a denim color. Love it. You are quite the inspiration and educator for this Old Lady🤣 you are my daughter's age. 💜 Keep doing what you are doing and pursue your dreams. 1 and 16 look like denim colors. 👖

These are so pretty n it's super fun mixing custom acrylics 😊 I can spend hrs making em lol 💙💗💖

Oh im so excited for this video!! Love acrylic mixes and glitter mixes too. I can watch those all day haha

i've been wanting to do this for so long. i cant wait for when i have so free time to do it. yours look really pretty.

i can’t wait to see the beautiful acrylics you create! thank you for watching key! 🥰🥰

Yay more custom acrylic mixes!

Love the Micha powder ones I was naming them as you go love love the colors the chalk ones are as vibrant but they are cute you should probably get a small blender to grind them up

Such a fun video. I definitely want to start making my own custom acrylics as well. About to check out part one. Tfs! 😊

The colors turned out good. I like watching custom acrylics. The mica powder method is easier then the chalk. Im glad I got to watch. Good job. Can’t wait to see you use the all.

These mica powders have a beautiful shimmer like too them!! OMG I'm going to order some!!

# 15 and #19 is my most favorite color!!!

Not really into acrylic so I wouldn’t make my own but this was oddly satisfying to watch you create and swatch your own acrylics. ❤️

Aloha Brandi, creativity can be a bit messy, but it's so much fun! Thanks for sharing 💚

Pigments and glitters are amazingly fun! Use an older drill when using the chalk because it can kill a drill (I speak from experience on that one...UGH!). Try a mortar and pestle to grind down your chalk acrylics. It may pound out some of the chunks.

I do prefer using an acrylic devoted blender to mix the shades vs shaking them.

❤️❤️❤️ I definitely love the acrylic mixes!!

Absolutely beautiful colors I always love a custom acrylic creations. Thanks for sharing this video 💅🏾💕

All these colors are so well pigmented! Very beautiful 😍 ❤ 💖 I'd like a set with a full yellow set 💛

That bright green is my absolute favourite but the golds and silver are also gorgeous. Great job hun 🇦🇺❤️

My favorite is #15! The mica powders definitely look way easier to use! Can’t wait to see what you do next ❤️

That array of acrylics looks so esthetically pleasing

I' love those mica powders you used. Definitely less dust and so gorgeous with the little sparkle in them 😍😍 my favorite was #23 😍😍

They’re all really is so beautiful so glad you tried the Mica powders I like to do them with some iridescent glitter like fine iridescent glitter. If they’re feeling a little chalky and not as buttery add a little bit more clear to them and that should make them absolutely perfect it’s so hard to pick a color they’re all so beautiful

love your videos! u my fave ♥ diy things like this video is a must and we LOVE to see them!

Michaels and Glitter Makes It ....has beautiful glitters

Great video love!! I loved the mica powder ones because of the shimmer 😍😍😍😍

Purple and teal

Isabel mae uses ikea napkins over her dust collector to save or extend the life of her dust collector filter. She tosses them after.... I use the method now too. It's a God send! They are 2ply and u separated them and cut them and use one part . The suction of the dust collector holds it in place for projects like this! U don't have ruin a filter with colors cuz they can be expensive after a while or use them all the time to extend the life of ur filter! Check out her page on how she uses it!

You can also add sequins in the acrylics too I love shopping on Amazon too. Love all of them 🎉✨💅💖😱

Hi Brandi! They all beautiful colors but my favorite is 1 and 3

Also, when using chalks use your sanding band. It makes the chank finer and mixes it better. And I got a 100 different color mica pack from Amazon for cheap. I don't remember exactly what brand or how much but it has lots of colors to mix with

They all are very Beautiful 😍

Use a small strainer when grinding chalk because you will not mess up your drill. Plus it’s less of a mess. And use a motar and pestle will mix the chalk up better and make it fine.

i bought acrylics from YN sale Sunday then went to amazon and got some mica powders and glow in the dark. i will be doing the same thing!!

Amazing colors tyfs

16 and 19 r my favorites

You should use a marble pestle mortar to grind & mix it will work easier and far better than your drill it will mix and breakdown really into a fine perfect powder 💜

Anything purple is a winner for me 💜💜💜 i was laughing at you not being able to touch the chalk, but then again, i cant touch velvet 🙃🙃 Cant wait to see what sets you do xx

Instead of grinding the chalk in the acrylic first try doing it separately and then mix it in so you know that there won’t be any chalk chunks in the acrylic

I LOVE the "white" mica's in this set, I have the same one. They each have a different color shift, but when you mix it with acrylic it makes them a shimmery nude, with different shifts. I was surprised when they came out a nude color.

Yey part 2 😁

Have you tried making colors with eyeshadows? its really therapeutic making your own acrylics and much cheaper.

I liked this video, but I wish you actually made custom colors. It seemed more like swatching the mica powders. I would love to see you create your own custom colors mixing different mica pigments.

I know this is like my 3rd comment on this one video, 😂 here is a tip when using chalk. First I use pastels instead of like school chalk. I have would use a drill first, then either a mortar and pestal, or when I am feeling lazy I just put the chalk I've crushed with just a tiny bit of acrylic and put it inside a tiny zip bag, like the ones that different size nail tips come in or different nail art. Anyway, then I just rub it between my fingers for a little, then pour it in the jar with the full amount of acrylic you wanna use, shake it, and there are no chunks. I mean you can add the chalk to the full amount of acrylic u plan to make for that mix and rub it into the bag that way. But I find it's just easier to put a tiny bit in and then rub it between ur fingers so the bag is still flat and not bloated with product. I am so bad at explaining, so if you would are having a hard time understanding what I'm explaining, I can send you a picture on IG or something. Trust me it makes it so much easier and makes the chalk so much more approachable. Because sometimes a solid acrylic is preferred over shimmers.

Naming would be fun!

Color 25 is my fave and 15♥️💜

13 Is my favorite 😍

Love this so much! I can’t wait to start making my own acrylics…I’d love to see the glow in the dark ones

You should add a spoonful of white to the clear and micha powder to get it more power

What size & name was the 60 pack of containers you pack you bought please? As I’d like to order some as I’ve some powders I’d like to mix up. Great tutorial.❤

Loved all the colors but my favorite one was the teal 😍 I will be trying this thank you Brandi 😊 can you use this acrylic as a dip powder

@NailedByBrandi

2 жыл бұрын

I am not sure if it would be fine enough to be used as dip powders!

I use cosmetic grade glitter in mine. The chameleon mica powder doesn't work when mixed with acrylic. I've tried it. But the cosmetic grade glitter doesn't change color or fade when the monomer hits it.

Excited for this one lol

Do you have to use a mixture of clear & white as your base? What happens if you only use one or the other?

I’m confused. You have 120 comments but I still see only the like that I put up! What’s happening? This video was fantastic and now a year old at least. I really wish people would remember to hit the like button as well as having a say in the comments. You’re wonderful 🇦🇺❤️

I have seen that monomer will remove color from cosmetic glitter.

This is probably a stupid question but can you wash the acrylic out of the brushes or do you have to throw them away after each use?
