Okay if I was going to give a review on the followup of this company I would give them 5 stars easy, but here are my issues with this product.
1) The instructions mention locking the skull molds, I have tried and tried to do this. I have tried with liquid, I have tried without liquid just to get the feeling of how they might lock. Some lock at various points on the mold but I have got zero to lock completely around. As they don't lock, the trays don't close correctly and don't allow for the creation of the ice skull.
2) There are no videos or visual examples on how to lock the molds. The only video I could find was how to cut a hole to fill the molds that way, but as I can't get them to lock all the way around, that won't work either. When the ice freezes the top of the mold comes up and you don't get a good skull.
3) One review mentioned that people that can't figure this out can't follow directions. I read the instructions, I searched for videos, I can't lock these things no matter what I do. I can build a computer but I can’t lock skull ice molds.

Okay so I'm excited about these! Both the images above are also glow in the dark. Now I've used this twice now and one of the molds did rip a bit, but with resin that's to be expected after a while. It's still going to have a lot of use for me and my geek friends are loving these! I know they are for ice, but they work great for resin as well. I don't use the whole thing as that's a lot more resin to go through, but make them flat at the back. They'll be perfect for selling closer to Halloween!

I saw several negative reviews for this mold saying it doesn't work, so I was nervous about giving it a try. But I just loved the idea of having skull shaped ice, so I went for it. I'm SOOO glad I did! The ice is exactly as expected, but there are some tricks to getting it right. Admittedly, I just breezed through the directions (even the ones the company emailed) the first time and my results were less than stellar. Tons of ice between the sections making the skulls not usable...but this was MY fault. After carefully reading the instructions again, these are the steps I followed for my second attempt: 1. Molds had already been washed, but if not, make sure you wash them by hand first. 2. Fill bottom mold up the entire way with either filtered or boiled, distilled water (cooled down). 3. Put the water filled mold in the sink, carefully place the top and let the excess water spill out the sides. 4. Make sure you press the center between the skulls flat so as little ice can form here as possible. 5. The MOST important step is to weigh down the center of the mold (as shown in the photos, I used small lunch ice packs). This allows a very thin or no layer of water between the mold halves. 6. After freezing (I left mine overnight), twist mold back and forth to dislodge ice. If the center has a thin layer of ice, don't worry, it will crack away leaving just the skulls. 7. I ran a bit of water over the skulls to free them. And voila! Super awesome skull ice!!! The pictures don't do them justice, the detail is really crisp! I used filtered fridge water in the pictures.

Make sure to wash the silicone molds before you use it. The instructions say to fill lower mold 2/3 full. This is 2/3 of the whole mold and not just the skull. Press the top portion in and you should have a small amount of water squirt out of the hole (not for filling). I used a paper towel to dry any additional water around the domes of the mold. After freezing twist the mold a little in each direction and the skulls come out pretty easy. First batch was cloudy, but looked good. Next batch will be done with boiled water that has cooled as it is supposed to produce clear ice. My only con is that I wish they were just a bit larger. Got me through a glass of bourbon and had a little left. Definitely does not water it down as much as smaller cubes that dissappear before your done.

So easy to use, if you just follow directions

They are a bit smaller (as listed) but fantastic and easy to produce many quickly without hassle. Unfortunately, humans are stupid and instead of following the directions that come with it, people are trying to fill them through the ventilation holes. Don’t do that. If you just do what it says, and fill the bottom tray about 1/3-1/2 way full, then push the top tray down over it, you will get almost perfect little skulls. The secret is finding the perfect spot to fill the bottom tray to. They should put a line, but anyone can figure it out fast. IMPORTANT: do not waste time double boiling water, lol. This is a myth. distilled water does nothing. Cloudy ice is from trapped air via fast freezing. The only way to get clear ice is called “directional freezing” (AJ a Clinebell machine or using an open igloo cooler). Slow directional freezing pushes the trapped air in water to one end of the freezing ice, which you saw or cut off. You are not going to get clear skulls like the photo, no matter what you do, unless you use directional freezing and/or slow freezing or both.
