Select the blend that you think will suit you best from our sample chart. Measure out your pigments using the large and small scoops as needed. Measure out equal parts of blending powder.

Start compounding the powders using the cutting edges of the spatula. Keep scooping into a mound and cutting, first in one direction and then another

Your powders will then begin to appear as though they are blending but you are not even close yet!

Turn your spatula to the flat side and start blending in the same manner as you might ice a cake. Keep scooping into a mound and then smooth out again.

As you press down on the powder you will see the colors streaking. You want to continue this process until the is absolutely no streaking. This is one of the most important parts of the process. Take you time, and work in an area where the light is good.

When your pigment base is completely blended you are now ready to add them to the rest of the powder base. You can use a blender for this if you have one, otherwise you will need to do this by hand. A whisk would be helpful.
