Last year I began to make real pearl powder, but at that time I resided at our summerhouse for many weeks as the plumbing related was renovated inside our apartment, so I made it and forgot about any of it then. So, finally, here is the result. I used real pearls, but the abnormal and small kind that is named seed pearls.
As that was the kind of pearls that apothecary’s held in the 18th century for medical purposes, it seems exceedingly likely that they were used to make pearl powder as well. Nowadays you find seed pearls in hobby stores and I purchased the smallest amount easy for my experiment. I put them in a small bottle and poured vinegar on top of them to cover them enough. I made a mistake and got apple cider vinegar instead Here. Though I poured it and took real vinegar away, a slight discolouration remained.

- A little honey
Upon evaluation I realised that the pearls were completely hollowed out and only a thin level of nacre remained! ONCE I pressed down using one it felt like it does when you press down on a boiled pea and I were left with peal mush on my finger. So I poured everything in a mortle and mushed throughoutly them all, put everything in a bowl and let the vinegar evaporate.
As you can view it behaved quite funnily, climbing through to the walls on the dish. Good thing, actually, because the discolouration emigrated to the top. Though it looked solid, the pearl powder was very brittle really, so I broke off the discoloured parts just. The top was a bit shiny in a satiny way, but inside the peal powder was just white. This suprised me a little as I had expected it to be pearlescent. After reducing it to a powder it became a somewhat satiny white, but I came across that whenever I pressed onto it down, pearlescent glints could be observed. It had been very refined and I couldn’t manage to catch that on an image.
At this aspect I have been in a position to obtain readymade pearl powder and upon testing I found that the main one I had fashioned made was virtually impossible to tell apart from the main one I had formed bought. A bit of a alleviation, actually, because the house made pearl natural powder is so full of vinegar that I’d never wear it my face. I’m really pleased that it turned out to be possibly to make pearl natural powder yourself, but I will not be carrying it out again.
The bought pearl powder is so close and much easier to use (no vinegar) that I am going to adhere to that. You can see how alike the both pearl powders are Here. I mixed powder with the same part of water and it converted into a semi-opaque whiteness. You can view the pearlescent glints at all. Alongside is Bismuth and it is very easy to understand why the literature says that even if this was called pearl natural powder as well, it has a different look completely. It is much more shiny, but a whole great deal less white. Extremely difficult to see is a version of Nun’s cream that I made with real pearl powder.
The ratio here is one part natural powder to two parts pomade and it generally does not arrive much at all. It really is more visible in reality than on the image, but it only somewhat whitens your skin, though it evens out the skin very well. I believe it is light-reflecting quite, even if the nacre isn’t noticeable, it is still there. The amount of whiteness a pigment leave on your skin is partly because of the pigment, but also about how much you use. Even after brushing my test areas with a powder brush, the pearl powder stayed on well quite, though it is not very opaque.
