Not sure who's Kaine, but its the white powder added to paint to achieve a metallic/pearly effect.

Hi Seele01, long time no post ;D Kaine was the one modelling the Gouf Custom. Doon sa second HQ video, malinaw na sa akin. Hinahanap ko nga rin yung pearl powder here in Singapore. Kasi ang definition nila nang pearl powder here, is for cosmetics or pampakinis nang mukha ;D

Sorry, posts move so fast in gt I lost track of this thread
and I didn't noticed anyone replied to my posts.
Anyways, I've searched the net and it seems pearl powder is a cosmetic material. I think that's what make-ups are composed of. Maybe I'll try asking in Watson's or Mercury Drug. ;D

Congrats! I hope I can find one locally. How much did it cost you?

Thanks. S$15.90, 780 yen ang original price nya, so around S$12. Cguro mga 100 grams to.

That's a lot, the ones I searched in HLJ roughly costs the same but only 10-20 grams.
