At first glance this mica looks green (hence the name Mermaid Green) but depending on the light you can definitely see the gold tones.
If using in soap making be aware that unless you’re using clear melt and pour soap base this will turn out a light green colour.
To use in soap:
For cold process soap, add 1 teaspoon of mica to 1-2 Tbps of a carrier oil like Sweet Almond and mix well – add 1 teaspoon of this mixture to your soap mixture.

aypittar –
Hello! I adore this colour. Mermaid Green is better than Gold. It is the most awesome colour. Try it! A tiny bit gives almost a gold – lots give a green gold. With apple green and a dusky peach or pink this is perfect. Antique Gold. I like this alot. You can also mix it with other colours.
