## What is Mixable?

Mix any color from the paints you actually own.

Mixable is a paint mixing guide built for artists who work with watercolor, acrylic, or oil. Pick any target color — from your camera, a photo, or a color wheel — and Mixable calculates the best possible match using only the paints in your palette, with exact ratios.

How it works:
• Build your palette by selecting the paints you own from real product lines
• Choose a target color using your camera, photo library, or color picker
• Get a precise mixing recipe with exact ratios from your paints
• See how close the match is with a side-by-side comparison and Delta E accuracy score

Real brands, real pigments:
Mixable includes paints from Winsor & Newton, Daniel Smith, Schmincke, Golden, Gamblin, Liquitex, Van Gogh, and more — each mapped to its actual pigment composition. The mixing engine uses Kubelka-Munk color theory to predict how pigments blend, the same science used in paint manufacturing.

Browse by pigment:
Explore paints organized by their Color Index pigment codes. See which paints across different brands share the same pigments — and understand what's actually inside your tubes.

Features:
• 2-paint and 3-paint mixing recipes
• Pick a target color from camera, photo, or color wheel
• Support for watercolor, acrylic, and oil
• Mixing tips tailored to each recipe
• Save and revisit your favorite recipes
• Browse paints by brand or by pigment code

Try Pro for 7 days:
Every new install includes 7 days of Mixable Pro with no payment required and no commitment — unlimited palette size, unlimited 3-paint mixing, unlimited saved recipes, and a starter palette so you can begin mixing right away.

Free tier:
After your trial, continue free with a palette of up to 10 paints, unlimited 2-paint mixing recipes, and 3 free 3-paint mixes per day — no account required.

Mixable Pro — $2.99/month, $29.99/year, or $69.99 once for lifetime access:
Unlock unlimited palette size, unlimited 3-paint mixing, and unlimited saved recipes.

### 5/5 — Glad I found this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

*2026-05-30*

Started watercolor a few weeks ago and was completely lost on mixing colors. Tried this app, you point your phone at any color and it tells you exactly how to mix it from your paints. Even gives little tips when a combo would look muddy. Helped me way more than the YouTube tutorials I've been watching.
