Star White Beaver Dust Pigment is a sparkling white mica powder from our Star Series, designed for epoxy resin, resin art, woodworking projects, candles, soap making, and craft applications. This pigment creates a bright white shimmer with extra sparkle, making it a useful choice for projects where you want a clean pearl-style effect, soft highlights, or a bright accent colour.
Use Star White in epoxy pours, river tables, resin inlays, coasters, trays, charcuterie boards, decorative art, ocean wave effects, and handmade gifts. It can be used on its own for a bright white shimmer or blended with other Beaver Dust Pigments to lighten colours, create custom pearl effects, or add soft movement to resin projects.
Best Uses for Star White Mica Powder
- Epoxy resin art and fluid pours
- River tables, resin inlays, and woodworking projects
- Ocean wave effects, foam details, and white resin highlights
- 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 Star Series Pigments Are Different
Star Series Beaver Dust Pigments are designed to create a stronger sparkling effect than a standard mica powder. Star White gives epoxy and craft projects a clean white shimmer with added sparkle, making it useful when you want highlights, contrast, or a pearl-style finish that catches the light.
This colour works well in clear epoxy, white epoxy, ocean-inspired pours, black backgrounds, darker colour blends, and natural wood projects. Testing a small sample first is the best way to see how the white 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.
Star White is especially useful when you want a bright mica powder that can add shimmer, soften other colours, create pearlescent effects, or build white highlight details in cured resin. Use a small amount for a more transparent white shimmer or add more pigment for a stronger, more opaque white effect.
Suggested Projects
- White epoxy pours: Use Star White on its own for clean white resin projects with a sparkling pearl-style finish.
- Ocean wave effects: Use Star White for wave foam, soft highlights, and coastal-style epoxy resin details.
- River tables and epoxy inlays: Add white shimmer to cracks, voids, rivers, logos, and decorative woodworking accents.
- Charcuterie boards and trays: Create bright white epoxy accents in handmade serving pieces and gift projects.
- Custom pigment blends: Mix with blue, teal, black, gold, silver, red, or green tones to create custom shimmer effects.
- Candles and soap: Test in your own wax or soap base to confirm the final colour, shimmer, and performance.
How Much Pigment Should You Use?
A good starting point for Star White 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.
