Had to do three times. First time, water pooled. Second time, it collapsed. Not easy to do. Read more

This lifemold alginate stuff works very well. Follow the instructions. Maybe watch some YouTube tutorial videos for additional information. Use distilled water instead of tap water and the molds will turn out better with finer details. The only negative I personally experienced with this product is that when stirring the alginate powder with the right quantity of distilled water, (I used an egg whisk and stirred it manually with my hand) the texture was very clumpy, I'd suggest using an electric egg whisk Read more

I want to start off with please read the instructions on the back carefully! I did not and my first two tries failed from being too lumpy but still set and were well textured. Use cold distilled water if you want about 60 seconds for more working time. I used a wisk and got fewer lumps in the 3rd batch but solved that with a cheap blinder. I used cold distilled water first before turning on the blender before adding the powder. That minimized both lumps and bubbles in roughly 10 to 15 seconds before pouring the mixture slowly as to let any remaining bubbles escape. Just try not to take too long because even with cold water the set time is still only about 5 or so minutes. Overall this product is fantastic! With the amount of detail it can hold, and with a little practice its well worth the price! Read more

Good Deal - Thanks Read more

My mistake messed up the first try but on the second the mold turned out great. Lots of detail. It does get bubbles that can add some texture but I’m going to give it another go this evening with something to shake out the bubbles. Used it to make a silicone mold and it turned out great Read more
