Polish Days: Glow in the Dark Sandwich Time!


Hoje o dia é especial porque vai ter dois posts! Já postei o desafio do dia aqui, e esse post eu já tinha preparado há algum tempo. Estou participando do Polish Days, uma iniciativa da Hannah do Polly Polish, onde uma vez por mês um grupo de blogueiras posta sobre o mesmo tema, no mesmo dia, na mesma hora.
Hi there! I have a second post today, which is super rare for me! I already posted today's challenge here, and this post has been ready for a few days. I'm participating in a super cool thing called Polish Days, where a group of bloggers post about the same theme, on the same day, at the same time, once a month.




O tema de hoje é "Sandwich", ou sanduíche. Sei que os sanduíches de glitter geralmente são feitos com esmaltes de acabamento "jelly", mas eu estava doida pra testar o meu esmalte "glow in the dark" da Claire's junto com um glitter pra ver no que dava.
Today's theme is "Sandwich". I know most glitter sandwiches are done with jelly polishes, but I was itching to try a sandwich with a glow in the dark polish. The one I got from Claire's (and already posted swatches and a gradient with it here) is pretty sheer, so I decided to go with that one.




Para esse sanduíche de glitter, eu comecei com duas camadas do Violeta da Guga, que é quase a mesma cor desse esmalte da Claire's, que já mostrei aqui sozinho e que precisa de umas 5 camadas pra fechar... Depois passei duas camadas do roxinho da Claire's, uma camada do Candy Shop da Claire's (dupe duplo do da Deborah Lippmann) e mais duas do roxinho da Claire's.
Esse esmalte glow in the dark da Claire's seca fosco, e resolvi deixar assim mesmo porque achei super interessante os glitters meio em alto relevo com acabamento fosco.
For this glitter sandwich, I started with one coat of Violeta by brazilian brand Guga, which is almost the same color as the Claire's glow in the dark polish. I then applied 2 coats of Claire's glow in the dark polish, one coat of Claire's Candy Shop, and two more coats of Claire's GID polish.
The GID polish dries semi-matte, and I decided to leave it this way. i thought it was very interesting to see the glitters sticking up a bit, and a little mattified.




Deixei a mão perto de uma lâmpada de mesa pra "carregar" o esmalte, e corri pro banheiro pra tirar a foto. O efeito glow in the dark diminui muito rapidamente, de uma foto para outra já dava pra notar a diferença no glow. Amei que deu para ver uns pontinhos coloridos no escuro, pra mim a experiência deu super certo!
I charged the glow in the dark polish by holding my hand up to a desk lamp, then ran to the bathroom where it was 100% dark, to take pictures. The GID effect fades pretty quickly on this polish, by the second picture the effect was much weaker.
The fact that you can see colorful dots on the GID picture made me very happy, and proved that this experiment worked!




Espero que vocês tenham gostado desse sanduíche de glitter! Obrigada mais uma vez por estarem me acompanhando no desafio e me dando força. 
I hope you enjoyed this glow in the dark glitter sandwich! Thanks for stopping by, and please check out the other bloggers and their awesome sandwich creations!
