Gold body paint: Mehron metallic powered, mixed with either mixing agent or baby oil.

Baby oil is great if you want a sheen to it, and it’s perfectly safe. This is how it turned out for me. Hope it helps.

I love this image, how much Mehron powder did it take to create this look?

Atomic Photography not a lot actually, I had bought 2 bottles thinking it wasn’t going to be enough, but only ended up using less than a quarter of the bottle (0.5 ounce bottle) and baby oil.

OMZ wow, I was expecting you to say 2-3 bottles! Have you ever tried applying it using water as the carrier as I've heard from models that it works (obviously not with the sheen)

Atomic Photography no I haven’t tried it with water yet, as I wanted the sheen. It’s something I may consider in the future.

The gold was good, but I was even more mesmerised by silver.👍🏾

Owen Lloyd yeah I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely would recommend Mehron. 👍🏾
