Seafoam Mica Powder - Beaver Dust Pigments

Seafoam Beaver Dust Pigment is a soft green-blue mica powder designed for epoxy resin, resin art, woodworking projects, candles, soap making, and craft applications. This pigment creates a light seafoam shimmer, making it a strong choice for projects where you want a softer coastal colour with movement, depth, and a pearlescent mica effect.

Use Seafoam in epoxy pours, river tables, resin inlays, coasters, trays, charcuterie boards, decorative art, ocean-inspired resin pieces, beach-style projects, and handmade gifts. It can be used on its own for a soft seafoam shimmer or blended with other Beaver Dust Pigments to create custom coastal, mint, aqua, teal, turquoise, lagoon, or ocean-style effects.

Best Uses for Seafoam Mica Powder

• Epoxy resin art and fluid pours
• River tables, resin inlays, and woodworking projects
• Ocean, beach, water, seafoam, aqua, and coastal-style epoxy projects
• Charcuterie boards, serving boards, trays, and decorative accents
• Resin coasters, jewelry, keychains, and small craft projects
• Candle making, soap making, and general craft projects

Why Seafoam Is a Useful Pigment Colour

Seafoam is a useful mica powder colour when you want a lighter green-blue pigment that works naturally in beach, ocean, and coastal-inspired resin projects. It can add a softer look than a bold blue or deep teal, making it a good option for airy pours, water effects, handmade trays, coasters, and decorative epoxy accents.

This colour works well in clear epoxy, tinted resin, coastal-style pours, white pearl effects, blue-green colour palettes, lighter blends, and natural wood projects. Testing a small sample first is the best way to see how the Seafoam tone, shimmer, and transparency will look in your exact resin, wax, soap base, coating, or craft material.

Why Beaver Dust Pigments Are Different

Beaver Dust Pigments are made with fine particles under 60 microns. This smaller particle size helps the pigment mix smoothly into epoxy and stay suspended while the resin cures, instead of settling to the bottom like some larger or heavier pigment particles can.

Seafoam is especially useful when you want shimmer, movement, and a soft coastal colour in cured resin. Use a small amount for a more transparent seafoam shimmer or add more pigment for a stronger, more saturated green-blue effect.

Suggested Projects

• Ocean-inspired epoxy projects: Pair Seafoam with white, Caribbean, blue green, clear, teal, or ocean blue pigments for water-style resin effects.
• Beach-style resin art: Use Seafoam with white mica powder for soft foam details, coastal movement, and lighter water-inspired pours.
• River tables and epoxy inlays: Add soft green-blue shimmer to cracks, voids, rivers, logos, and decorative woodworking accents.
• Resin coasters and trays: Create handmade pieces with a light coastal shimmer and softer colour palette.
• Charcuterie boards and serving pieces: Use Seafoam for beach-inspired epoxy accents in boards, trays, and handmade gift projects.
• Custom pigment blends: Mix with white, blue green, teal, ocean blue, Caribbean, silver, or light gold tones to create custom coastal, aqua, and lagoon effects.

How Much Pigment Should You Use?

A good starting point for Seafoam mica powder is approximately 1/8 teaspoon per 1 litre of epoxy for a medium level of transparency. You can adjust from there depending on the colour strength, opacity, shimmer, and final effect you want.

For smaller batches, start with a small amount, mix thoroughly, and add more gradually. Mica powder can look different depending on lighting, background colour, epoxy depth, and the amount used, so testing a sample is recommended before committing to a larger project.
