PearlEx is loose mica powder. There are tons of ways to use it. Do a search in the techniques forum. You'll be amazed at how versatile it is. It is sold at craft stores everywhere. I bought mine with a coupon at Michael's before I became a demo.

Hello! Pearl Ex is so easy to use and the results are stunning! It adds a new level of beauty for sure. I use VersaMark on the stamp, tap a tiny bit of powder onto the stamped area, and spread it with my finger (you could use a Q-tip). Have fun!

I use a soft paint brush to spread on the pearl ex (a little goes a long long long way), wipe off the excess with a swiffer cloth after it has had a chance to sit for a little bit so the versamark is all dry.

Me too! I have a spare blush brush I use. I usually shake my jar a little and use what's stuck on the lid to brush into my image. Works like a charm!
