Del Sol Trick-Or-Treat!

Hi everyone! I am currently in the process of moving, so bear with me if I can't post everyday. I will do my best and promise not to disappear on you! Life gets in the way, but... polish is also my life LOL.

 Today I want to show you Del Sol Trick-Or-Treat. I was so excited to add this one to my collection. We have been getting a ton of rain lately so I had to wait until we had a day with some SUN. Today it rained some more, but there were a few moments when the sun was out. Yes, I managed to sneak outside and photograph my color-changing mani during the move LOL.

I really enjoyed wearing this polish! It is just so neat and incorporates so many things I love... Halloween, orange, holo glitter, and it changes color! This is my first experience with Del Sol, and I am very happy so I will probably buy more. Trick-Or-Treat has orange and holographic glitter in an orange base. I needed three coats for full opacity. It dried pretty quickly but it is a hungry glitter. Even with a coat of Gelous and Orly Sec 'N Dry, it still felt a little rough in spots. In the sun it changed to a dark brown but I think it is supposed to turn black. Like I said, there wasn't much sun, it was popping out from behind the clouds here and there, so I bet this would have turned darker on a sunnier day.

Artificial light, no flash.








Sunlight.



Del Sol Trick-Or-Treat retails for $10 but I purchased mine on eBay for $6.99 plus shipping. I think this is either a seasonal, limited edition or discontinued color because it is not on the Del Sol website. I am not very familiar with this brand so I apologize I do not know more about it's availability.

Hi Traci!

I have a whole bunch of del sol's from cruise ships and vacations. Generally I've noticed that top coat will diminish their colour change, and they usually chip really fast w/o top coat. Also, some of them stop changing colour over time. They are really cool though! My favourite was a clear that turned red! but unfortunately the clear is now an ugly nail stained yellow colour =( lol... awesome post though!
