This listing is for 6 mini containers (5ml) loaded with Pearl Ex pigments + Gum Arabic + distilled water + pipettes. The pigments are shipped "dry" to avoid leaks but you will have everything you need to activate your colors & start right away. I have been using these container for 6+ years and they have a perfect seal. If you do not touch these for a few years, the pigments will completely dry out but you can re-activate each pod by adding distilled / boiled water again + stir and they are good as new. Please be aware you will need to stir your ink pod before and while working. Please refer to the pictures to pick your colors. (24 options from Pearl Ex sets #1 and #3). Each color has a 3 number code. I will send you a picture of all your picks to confirm before I pack/ship your bundle. Notes : Pearl Ex is archival quality (will not fade). Gum Arabic is a binder, distilled water prevents mold growth.
