100% Vegan, Cruelty Free, and Ethically Sourced Micas

Inspired by photos from the James Webb Space Telescope, Zero Gravity Mica is like a glimpse into the deepest reaches of outer space. This black mica contains tiny holographic flecks that mimic the look of stars in the cosmos. Perfect for adding bold color—and shimmer—to soaps, wax melts, bath bombs, and more!

See our complete list of soap safe fragrance and essential oils.

Note: We do not recommend using mica in candles.

Recommended Usage Rates in Soap:

  • Melt & Pour: ½ tsp per lb. of base
    • Note: a white base will always create a pastel form of the color.

Soap Maker’s Notes:

  • A white base will always create a pastel form of the color.

Very Pretty! Not Black Enough

This is a very pretty mica powder. The only thing is that I am able to see gold and blue. It doesn’t bother me too much but it isn’t completely black. It is very nice though!

5 out of 5 Stars.
Great Color!

Used in bath bombs - great coloring and the sparkles absolutely come through!
