American Apparel - Jupiter. It GLOWS IN THE DARK!

Yesterday I was in Manchester doing some shopping, and in Selfridges I could SMELL NAIL VARNISH! I stumbled upon a whole stand of American Apparel nail varnish, which I've never seen before. This is Jupiter, which is a glow in the dark!

First I started with a base of Missguided's Missmatch. This orange creme was part of a big swap with my friend Squeakymom. I've never heard of Missguided before, but on googling, I think they released some polishes as free gifts with Cosmopolitan earlier this year.   Missmatch is an orange creme. This is two coats. Application was fine - it was nothing special, but there was nothing wrong with it.

I then added a coat of American Apparel Jupiter. This was a fairly thick formula, a little on the gloopy side. It dried well though, with a slightly mattish texture which I like.  The colour was slightly paler than my base colour, so it did tone it down a touch.

And it really does glow in the dark! I was a bit surprised that it glows a ghoulish yellowy green rather than orange, but it glows very distinctly and for quite some time. It's very VERY hard to photograph though!

I love this! 

I found American Apparel in Selfridges Manchester for £7 per bottle or 3 for £17.
