What is UV resin?
UV Resin is a synthetic resin that hardens under UV light and is much easier to use than conventional epoxy resin. While the usual epoxy resin has to be mixed with two components, UV Resin can be used straight from the product packaging.
One further major advantage is that it cures in minutes under the UV lamp. UV Resin is known for its high transparency and gloss, making it ideal for jewelry making and other applications where an aesthetically pleasing finish is desired. It is used in many areas, such as jewelry making (e.g. pendants, earrings), casting small objects, making figurines or decorative elements and small repairs.

Making UV resin jewelry
Start by mixing the resin and glitter well in a mixing cup . Make sure to distribute the glitter evenly to ensure an even result in your finished piece of jewelry.
Carefully pour the mixed resin-glitter mixture into the molds provided. Be careful not to overfill the molds to achieve a clean result.
Now you can gently press flowers or sequins into the liquid resin. These elements give your creations a unique and individual touch.
Cure the resin under a UV lamp. This usually takes a few minutes, but check the manufacturer's specific curing times.
For a special visual effect, mix some white resin into the transparent resin and swirl it lightly with a wooden skewer. This effect creates a marbled look that makes the piece of jewelry even more appealing.
Use pliers to attach jewelry rings and pendants to your work. If necessary, you can fix them securely with some resin.

Gold leaf edge effect
For a luxurious finish, place some resin around the edge of the mold and let it harden completely. Coat the hardened edge with gold leaf and gently brush over the edge with a soft brush to avoid crumbling or unevenness. Once the edge is finished with gold leaf, fill the rest of the mold with resin and let it harden again.
