Frequently Asked Questions – Resin, Pigments & Creative Products

Welcome to our Frequently Asked Questions page. Here you’ll find helpful information about the Apex resins, and Create and Bloom opaque pigments, glitters, and creative products, along with guidance on workshops, orders, and general enquiries.

We’ve created this page to support creative hobbyists, resin artists, and makers at every stage, from beginners exploring resin crafts to experienced artists working on detailed pouring art and mixed media projects. If you’re looking for clarity on materials, safety, usage, or what to expect when ordering, you’re in the right place.

If you can’t find the answer you’re looking for, please feel free to get in touch, we’re always happy to help.

Are your products suitable for beginners?

Yes. Our products are suitable for both beginners and experienced makers. We aim to make resin, pigments, and creative materials accessible and easy to use, with clear guidance and supporting resources available throughout our website. You might also like to head to our socials to see them all in action. 

Are your pigments and glitters safe to use?

Our pigments and glitters are selected for use in creative applications and are suitable for resin art, mixed media, and craft projects. We always recommend working in a well-ventilated area and following standard safety guidance when working with resin and related materials.

Can your products be used with epoxy resin and eco resins?

Yes. Many of our pigments and glitters are compatible with epoxy resin, eco resins, and other creative mediums such as Jesmonite. Individual product listings include specific guidance on suitability and usage. However, Opaque Resin pigments are specifically formulated for Epoxy resin. 

Do you offer guidance or tutorials for using your products?

Yes. We regularly share helpful demonstrations, tips, and creative guidance through our YouTube channel and workshops. These resources are designed to support you in getting the best results from your resin and creative projects.

Where are your products made?

Many of our products are proudly made in England by trusted, accredited manufacturers who are committed to quality and responsible production. Some specialist glitters are sourced from Europe to ensure the highest standards of finish and performance.

A significant proportion of our pigments, flourish pastes, and Eco Pour pigments are carefully made or blended in our Bloom studios using unique binders. This allows us to create distinctive, cohesive colour ranges that deliver consistent, high-quality results across resin, eco resin, and creative projects.

As a practising artist, Lou strongly believes that if a product doesn’t exist, or doesn’t quite meet creative needs, it’s worth developing and refining it. That philosophy drives a commitment to making high-quality, thoughtfully designed materials accessible to other creatives.

What if I need help choosing the right product?

If you’re unsure which product is best for your project, please get in touch. We’re always happy to help guide you towards materials that suit your creative goals.
