How To Make A Pearlescent Glaze with Luna Pearl

In this free how-to video, we show you how to mix Luna Pearl metallic concentrate with the Illuminator to make your own pearlescent glaze.

This is a fun way to create a subtle metallic finish that looks great over light to mid-toned colours. Play with the ratios of Luna Pearl concentrate to the Illuminator to get the finish that you want.
