WHAT IS THE BEST TEMPERATURE FOR APPLICATION? For optimal results and a professional finish, the cocoa butter should be used at a temperature of approximately 86°F (30°C).

CAN THIS BE USED IN AN AIRBRUSH? Absolutely; it is specifically formulated to be thin enough for airbrushing or spraying when properly melted and tempered.

IS THIS COLOURING NATURAL? Yes, this specific reference (004609) uses carminic acid as a natural pigment to achieve its deep red tone.
