The Heavy Metal Palette is a 5-color assortment of alcohol-activated metallic pigments. After applying, this self-setting formula dries to a waterproof and sweatproof finish, making it an excellent resource for any makeup that will be subject to intense conditions.
These earthy toned metallics are ideal shades for creating a broad range of SFX, fantasy, body art, and performance makeup designs that rely on durability to make it through production.
AAP-31 – 6gm./0.2 oz. Expect 10-20 applications per shade.

Color pigments should be activated with 99% alcohol before applying. This can be done by adding alcohol directly into the color cell or wetting a brush with it.
The color density achieved is a combination of the amount of alcohol used and the amount of time it is spent activating. More opaque colors will be created with less alcohol and longer time, while sheer colors will be done with more alcohol and shorter activation time.
Colors can be applied through various tools like brushes and sponges for an array of realistic and artistic effects. Build up colors on the skin in thin layers to give the appearance that the color is in the skin. Our Mini Splatter Brushes are ideal for flicking colors across the skin.
Remove colors by reactivating them with alcohol and wiping away. Colors should be used in a well ventilated space.
