    Sparkling Metallic Watercolors

    The watercolors are handmade by us - the Lisilinka team, 100% vegan and not harmful.

    #We use a variety of pigments from different suppliers, mainly cosmetic grade.

    #The binder consists of water, gum arabicum, glycerine, glucose, fructose and potassium sorbat. We only use food grade purities.

    Please keep the colors away from small children since they may choke on it.

    Although we pay a lot of attention to the production process, we may not be able to prevent the formation of few air bubbles inside.

    Lisi uses colors like Crystal Gold, -Silver, -Rose for more than two years and could not see any change in her pictures over time, even on locations exposed to the sun (that is where metallic watercolors shine the most at the end :)). However since we are continously looking for new pigments from different suppliers creating a wider spectrum of shades, we can't confirm that all pigments are lightfast.

    Holo is short for holographic and means i did add pigments which are reflecting/ scattering the entire range of colors in the visible light.

    The crystal colors contain the color pigments exlusively.

    For example: Crystal gold has a beautiful golden sparke. Holo Gold however sparkles in gold and with rainbow effect.

    Down below you can see two videos of a customer review which show the differences nicely! Thank you Petra :)!
