NaturallyTru Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Does mica need to be diluted in something before being added to lotion base? Trudi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacquiO Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 I've used pearlizing mica in body butters. I just added it powdered when I added my FO and whipped them together into the lotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tlc26 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) you don't have to. I add powder mica to my lotions. You can aslo use a medium like glycerin but make sure you account for it in your recipe and labels. WSP sells "liquid" mica, I have some and to me it looks like powder mica in glycerin and it only seperates and the mica sinks to the bottom of the jar and it takes forever to mix to use it.
