Golden Buddha Gold Mica
The famed Golden Buddha was discovered in 1957 when a group of monks were relocating their Monastery in Thailand. They noticed a large crack in what they thought was a clay Buddha.
"Absolutely gorgeous! I’ve used this in my cold process soap (beautiful creamy golden color) and in my bath bombs ... I want a gallon of this lol."
—Yvonne G. (verified)
Further inspection of this crack revealed that the Buddha was in fact made of solid gold. Historians believe that it had been covered in clay hundreds of years prior to protect it from an attack by the Burmese army.
It is most definitely a treasure, and we are so excited to bring you this magnificent gold. It’s just exquisite; reminiscent of the gold jewelry found in Thailand. Whatever medium you choose: soap, resin, make up, etc., Golden Buddha mica will not disappoint.

| Particle Size | 10–60 μm |
| Usage Rate CP Soap | 2 tsp per lb of oils |
| Usage Rate MP Soap | ½ tsp lb of MP base |
| Ingredients | Mica (CI 77019), titanium dioxide (CI 77891), iron oxide (CI 77492) tin oxide (CI 77861) |
- Usage rates can be varied to lighten or darken hue. Listed amounts create bright colors with no colored suds.
- White MP base will always create a pastel form of the color due to titanium dioxide in base.
- To use in bath bombs or other bath products (water applications), we recommend using polysorbate 80 at a rate of approximately 2% of your total batch weight (dry and wet ingredients). This should allow the color to disperse evenly and eliminate mica from floating on the water's surface or leaving a ring of color around the tub.
- Sample bags contain approximately one teaspoon.

The Golden Buddha is a very pretty gold, and SUPER bright and shimmery. I love it :)
I use this color on my sunflowers which is one of my most popular products so I need to keep this stocked. Thanks for all your amazing colors!
I mixed this alone with Sparkle me gold, I used more of sparkle me gd, Golden buddha will definitely give you that gold if you use more. Check out my shimmery perfume oil @iruhz aura on ig.
I didnt know if I was going to like this one as much as I love king Tut but omgoodness!!! This gold is overall different and gorgeous. It's a bit muted from KT so its perfect for a beautiful gold with not as much zing bling!
Beautiful royal old world feeling gold. I love the vibes it gives! Will definitely buy again!
