Is This Kelly Green Pigment Real?? *With Pics*

[janwa09]

Hi guys! I just received a full jar of Kelly Green pigment that I ordered on Ebay and I just wanna ask you guys what you think of it based on the pictures. I just got alarmed of its authenicity when I noticed that the box of the pigment says Made in the U.S.A. while the jar itself says it's Made in Canada. Also, since I haven't seen Kelly Green piggy in the flesh ever...what is its texture? This one is really powdery/fine and really full.

Thanks! Let me know what you guys think!

This looks totally authentic to me. Dont worry about the manufacture details - quite often pigments actually ARE made in the USA, but many are also made in Canada. Its the same with the boxes - some say USA, some say Canada so dont stress over that too much. The colour looks fine and the jar is authentic. the labeling looks legit as well. Enjoys it!

Safe and sound. No worries there!

Do some pigments have clear stickers on the bottom? I thought they were always black.

My Kelly Green pig has a clear sticker on the bottom.

It's really full too.

The pigment stickers on the base of the jars these days are usually silver or clear. Having said that I do have some older pigments and glitters with black base stickers which is fine. However I would be worried if a new pigment came with a black one.

Metallic pigments also come with black base stickers? I can't remember. :S

You are right... the stickers are silver. I didn't know they came in clear as well. Thanks for the info.

Pro colors have the clear color stickers on the bottom of the jars - regular/consumer ones have the grey ones

Not quite correct - I have pro colours here with silver stickers as well in the old pro sticker format. If you have one you will know what I am talking about
