      Hello –
      I am new to resin casting, and was wondering how you can cast a mold with resin and color it with multiple colors. I am trying to make a lips mold have 7 sparkle colors in it, and dont know how to do it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

      Hi Robin,

      The easiest suggestion I can give you is to pour your resin into your mold.  Once it has partially cured to the point of not being liquid, but still a bit sticky (usually an hour or two after mixing depending on what resin you are using), you can pour your glitter or other sparkly items on the back of the resin without it sinking to the bottom.  You can see the technique in this video:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSD6gKvn4XE  I start using the glitter at 3:15.
