Color Changing Holo

I may have gotten a little overexcited by the holographic top coat that I made, so I promise, this will be the last time I post about it...for a little bit anyways! ;) Sorry, I'm just pretty much in love with it! The husband and I went to the Bahamas in February and I picked up two Del Sol polishes. If you aren't familiar with them, they change colors in the sun! Yep, I know, pretty awesome! This polish is called Calypso and it's pink indoors and purple in the sun. It's pretty on its own, but it really is beautiful when it's made holo! The formula is good on this nail polish, but it was prone to streaks and I did get a few tiny bubbles. They annoyed me but I'm sure no one noticed them in real life. The only problem I ran into when taking pictures was how to photograph both the indoor color AND the holo effect at the same time! The pink changes to purple REALLY quickly, so I had to work fast. Therefore, there are more outdoor pictures than indoor pictures! However, I'm happy to report that we finally got enough sun here in FL to properly photograph a holo polish! YAY! The purple pictures were taken outdoors in direct sunlight. The pink ones were taken indoors in direct sunlight. Enjoy! :)

      Not bad. I need to find them.

    Oh, that's a good idea! Do you think it will change color still if I have Del Sol and a holo top coat on top?

      Definitely! Mine still changed color like a champ, even with the holo top coat I had on! :)
