When I took the multi-coat mani into the dark, the nails with the fewest coats glowed the least.
I then really slopped on the polish, building all my nails up to about six or seven coats (I know—that's a lot, but for a special occasion, I'll do it).
Taking that into the dark, I got much better glowing. If I'd had the patience to sit and really charge them up under the light, I probably would have had even better results.

ReplyDeleteHe he he. Cute.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for showing it! ^__^ And the bottles are just so cute *___*
ReplyDeleteI have these and I love them, they are so cute.
ReplyDeleteJust being random, because I just thought about it: if you have the collection on the top of your cabinet, when it gets dark they'll start glowing! :o I just remembered about some glow in the dark toys I used to have on my room's cabinet, and at night they were just so fun to watch! *lol*
ReplyDeleteLooks so cool! I have one and I love it! It's good for layering!! :)
ReplyDeleteI love these!They look so fun and they've got the most of my votes on your giveaway too :p
ReplyDeleteSo cute!I'm sure the big companies will make some of these soon!
I'm so happy your glowing polish showed up on camera, I couldn't get mine to show!
ReplyDeleteExcellent!!!
I never had any of these glow in the dark polishes. must be really good for parties but it's really is a lot, 6-7 coats of it to get that effect, hmmm. I wouldn't have the patience. cutest bottle ever ;)
ReplyDeleteWow! They look cool! I can't get over how cute the bottles are. :)
ReplyDeletehehe very cute, Woud really love these for halloween
ReplyDeleteThis looks so cool..I'll have to see if I can find these in my area. Could you layer a few coats of this over another colour to make it glow?
ReplyDeleteI have the pink and orange ones. They were perfect to use on my friend's 8 year old.
ReplyDeletethis is so cool! i can imagine it would freak people out though!
ReplyDeleteoh, these would be so fun to trick or treat with, lol.
ReplyDeleteVery cool
ReplyDeleteI sure hope I can locate these! That is so much fun! Trick or treat nails!
ReplyDeleteVery cute! I would definitely wear them over a base color, though.
ReplyDeleteThese polishes are so cute! I bought a couple, too... the pink one and the orange one. I also had to slather on like 8 coats to get an IN YO FACE glow, but it was worth it!

ReplyDeleteSorry, Karen,my comment above was for "Light pink cremes" ;)
ReplyDeleteThose pumpkin polishes must be fun :)
This is just plain awesome. Thanks for doing it. I really wish I could find these lacquers.
ReplyDeleteThanks, everyone!
ReplyDeleteKarina, good idea to display the bottles; the polish definitely glows longer in the bottle than on the nail.
Serena, the one time I layered one of these over another color, I didn't use enough coats to get the glow. It should be possible, but the base color might get a bit obscured by the time you had enough coats of the glitter to get a good glow effect going.
migdall, no problem, I used my mighty admin powers to make the wayward comment go away. :)
oh wow, you really need to pack these on
ReplyDelete6 or 7 coats? whoa, that is a lot of work! However, again I am reminded of cupcake frosting... am I weird... very cute!!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy I have this now Karen. *dances*
ReplyDeleteAlso, what an amazing effort to do the experiment! thanks for this!
Yay for them getting there safely!
