I recently got my hands on this 18-color UV resin dye set, and wow, the colors are stunning! The first thing I noticed was how concentrated they are—just a drop or two is enough to transform clear resin into vibrant hues. I used the lime and kiwi shades to create a custom green for a pendant, and the result was a gorgeous, translucent emerald.

One thing to note: the blue pigment behaved oddly in my UV resin prints. It seemed to vanish after curing, leaving behind a Mountain Dew-like shade (weird, right?). But mixing it with other colors worked perfectly—my emerald green stayed true post-cure. The dropper nozzles are genius—no messy cutting, just poke the seal and you’re ready to go.

These dyes blend seamlessly, whether I’m making jewelry or coating tumblers. They’re not alcohol-based, so marbling effects are limited, but the opacity when mixed with white resin is chef’s kiss. Pro tip: test cured colors on bottle caps first—the "espresso" is more gray than brown, and "peach" leans pink.

For beginners, start sparingly—too much can make UV resin tacky. But at this price for 18 shades? Absolute steal for resin addicts like me.
