Why Pigment Choice Matters in Epoxy Resin Projects
Color isn't just an afterthought in epoxy - it's the feature. The shade you choose sets the entire mood of your piece: warm and rustic, sleek and modern, or bold and dramatic.
When it comes to fall, pigments do more than decorate. They can:
- Capture the season's natural palette: Think fiery leaves, golden fields, and earthy wood grains.
- Elevate functional pieces: A burnt orange or copper-tinted board looks right at home under pumpkin pie.
- Create depth and dimension: Eye Candy's mica pigments have that shimmer effect that makes epoxy pours look alive.
Because Eye Candy pigments are finely milled and highly concentrated, they blend seamlessly with Promise Epoxy resins, giving you bold color without clumping or dullness.

Best project match: Charcuterie boards - imagine that vibrant orange running through a live edge wood slab.
2. Golda Gold
Nothing says fall like gold tones. Golda Gold is rich, warm, and metallic - like golden hour bottled up. It pairs beautifully with darker shades and is great for adding highlights.

Tips for Using Eye Candy Pigments with Promise Epoxy
- Start small: A little goes a long way - Eye Candy pigments are highly concentrated.
- Mix thoroughly: Use a stir stick or drill mixer to ensure pigments fully disperse.

- Test your ratios: Create small samples before committing to a large piece.
- Seal natural inclusions: If embedding leaves, flowers, or wood, make sure they're fully sealed to prevent bubbles.
