Starrily - King Midas

I wanted a gold holographic nail polish.

I'm normally a silver person, but I have fond memories of gold holographic foil from childhood.

I was actually took a bit to find a good gold holo polish, but I got one!

Plus the box it came in was super cute!

This is a clear polish with a decent amount of gold holo glitter.

This nail polish is full of glitter!!
It would be easy to get an opaque coat with Cristine's nail dabbing technique.

I personally prefer a light glitter scattering over the nail.

It makes me so happy to see it each time.

This is really pretty!

Price: 2/5 ($18.95 for 15mL)
Scent: 0/5 (nail polish, don't sniff)
Effectiveness: 5/5

Art break - Thermochromatic Pen

When I was younger, I had a pen which looked black, but changed colour when it was heated up.
The ink itself was just normal ink, but the casing was thermochromatic.
Thermochromatic = changes colour in response to heat.

One way to do this is using liquid crystals (like in your LCD television).

I was reminded of this pen (long since lost in the folds of time) whilst watching SimplyNailogical's thermochromatic nails video.

I couldn't see why this couldn't be applied to a pen casing.

So I grabbed a pen and painted it in black acrylic paint.

I have a million of these pens!

Then I put on two thick layers of Solar Colour Dust liquid crystal paint. (They also sent me a sample of holographic glitter! <3)

Looks so unassuming!

Don't worry, it dries clear!

So far so good!

Finally, a sealing coat of top coat nail polish.

Verdict: I LOVE IT!
