Del Sol Trick or Treat

I originally saw this combo on The Nail Board and I knew I'd have to try it myself. The base color is China Glaze Cross Iron 360 with two coats of Del Sol's Trick or Treat.

Indoors:


and outside:


I think I may need to add a few more coats of the Del Sol so it turns a bit more black, but this was one fun Halloween mani to wear!!



Thanks for looking!

Del Sol Color Changing Polishes - Holiday Editions

Del Sol polishes are so cool. When I saw swatches of Trick or Treat, I knew I had to have it. So I ordered that and the Christmas colors from eBay.

Indoor Bottle Colors: Holly Berry is a red base with red glitter, the bottle looks a lot like Ruby Pumps. Tinsel Toes looks like yellow glitter in a clear base. Silver Bells is interesting. It's a clear base with silver glitter, but swatched you can see little bits of red glitter thrown in. You don't see that in the bottle. Heartbreaker is a deeper red / maroon-ish color with lighter red and sparse amts of gold glitter mixed throughout. Lastly, Trick or Treat is an awesome orange holographic glitter. I ♥ this one.


Here they are swatched. Check out the bits of red in Silver Bells.


and in sunlight: Holly Berry turns a darker maroon-ish red glitter. Tinsel Toes transforms into an amazing red base with gold and red glitter showing through - this is so pretty!! Silver Bells turns into a gold glitter with red bits mixed throughout (cute!). Heartbreaker is now a purple base with the red and gold glitter showing throughout and lastly, Trick or Treat becomes a black base with holo glitter.

My Current NOTD is Ulta's Little Black Dress topped with Cover Girl's City Lights. This is my NYE mani, and after a couple of days it's still holding strong. So far, I'm liking the Ulta polishes. I picked up 4 this past weekend when they were B2G2.


Santa got me a new camera for Christmas, so all these picks were taken with the new one. I really love the Macro, it picks up great detail.

Thanks for looking!

Del Sol Color Changing Polishes pt 2

Here are the last two Del Sol colors I picked up. This one is called Calypso and besides Ruby Slipper, it's the 2nd most noticeable changer in the group.

It's a light frosty pink indoors and outside it changes into a kick butt purple. I'm not a lover of pinks, but the purple side of it rocks!

And last, but not least is Rockstar:


Indoors, it's a blue glitter and outdoors, it turns into a teal glitter. In person, the color definitely changes, but it's not as dramatic as the others.



Here another look at all four, left to right: Ruby Slipper; Calypso; Rockstar; Superhero. The top is indoors and bottom outdoors:


Random cruise pick, just for fun:

Del Sol Color Changing Polishes pt 1

What a great vacation! There's nothing like a cruise, I highly recommend it 8-)


While shopping in St Thomas, I was able to pick up four Del Sol polishes. In case you haven't heard of Del Sol, the colors change when exposed to UV light. In the store, they sold everything from polish to clothing and jewelry.


The first color is my favorite; Ruby Slippers. Indoors it is a silver glitter in a clear base....


But, when you get it outside, it turns into a bright red. Out of the whole group, this one is the most dramatic changer. You can stand by a window and it'll start turn. Very cool.



The next one up is called Superhero. Indoors it is a very pretty light blue with a frosty look to it.




And outside according to the cap, it's supposed to change into a bright light purple. In real life, it changes into a dark gray-ish purple.


We also hit the MAC store....what a disappointment! I was really just like as big as a counter at a department store....and the prices were more expensive than they are here. Bummer.


I have two more Del Sols to show off, I'll post those tomorrow.
