![]() ![]() It’s still an amazing effect and the large sparkles in it are stunning. No, the black Cernit Pearl is more subdued. There is also U-POL spray varnish applied to the right side of each circle, showing the intense shimmer. There’s a tutorial for it included in my Sanding and Buffing tutorial.) These baked circles of Cernit Pearl feature the mica shift technique. (Mica Shift is a ghost image in the clay that happens by manipulating the particles in a certain way. Not only does this stuff have a great sparkle, it also has the right kind of mica particle sizes to make extraordinary mica shift. The large circles are baked, the small circle is unbaked. You can see in the photo above that the small circles of unbaked clay are pretty much the same color as the large, baked circles. It’s actually hard to tell because the clay is so shimmery that it appears lighter, depending on the light. Even though this Cernit Pearl does have a translucent base, it doesn’t darken appreciably. It’s normal for translucent clays to darken (sometimes substantially) when they’re baked. Note how the glitter color contains two different colors and sizes of glitter and very different from metallic clay. Here are three circles cut from Premo metallic colors sitting on a sheet of Premo White Gold Glitter. And the shimmer or sparkle of Cernit Pearl is much more refined and yet intense than the glitter of the Premo glitter clays. They’re much more intense than the metallic and pearl colors of Premo. You can compare the Premo metallic colors in my metallic clay comparison article here. Premo Accents is the line of translucent, sparkly, metallic, and glittery clays made by the Sculpey company. Large circles are baked, small circles are unbaked. Top row is Cernit Pearl, bottom row is Cernit Metallic. You can also get a closer look in the video below. Large circles are baked, small circles are raw unbaked. I’ve compared them below with the closest colors. Several of the Cernit Pearl colors are the same as the Cernit Metallic. Like the metallic line, though, I believe that Cernit Pearl also contains a synthetic mica which gives it this substantial shimmer. It’s much more sparkly and has a brighter shine than the Cernit Metallic line. The new Cernit Pearl has a very large mica flake with a substantially reflective shine. It’s easy to assume that this new line would also have a small flake of subtle shimmer. Since Cernit already has a pearly-appearing clay, why would they want to make a new line? The Cernit Glamour line (now discontinued) had blocks with a very fine mica that merely shimmered instead of sparkling. EDIT: in 2022, they added yellow to the range. You’ll find the following colors.Īll of the colors of Cernit Pearl. Cernit Pearl comes in eight colors in 56 gram packages. This replaces the previous Cernit Glamour and it has an entirely new look that they didn’t have previously. Cernit just released a new line of polymer clay called Cernit Pearl.
