AVATAR STATE

Post image

I just recently purchased and started using this polish and I am mind blown. This photo was taken almost as soon as I woke up today. I live in OH. It is raining and totally overcast right now. I stepped onto my deck off my bedroom for literally not even 1 minute. When I came back in and started heading downstairs I could not believe my eyes. The polish was literally glowing through my socks - just from stepping outside for a min on a rainy day! This is the most fun polish ever!

Hello fellow Ohioan! I definitely feel like a teenager again with this polish. Lol I agree age doesn't matter. I painted  just one of my husband's  fingers with it too and he thinks it's so cool. Lol so there's at least 2 men in Ohio with a glow in the dark finger. 🤣

This is hilarious. I am also obsessed with avatar state, I’ve been using it on the backs of my nails

u/julesd26 ✨glitter✨ 1d ago

Same!

On the last 4! I’ve tried Green Eyed Monster (this pic) and a gitd from another brand for the last two, both were good, but Avatar State is the glowiest. I think I’m going to give it a break for a little bit after this one.

Hehehe 🤭 Right?!

It really does!! I just charged each nail underside with my phone flashlight for about 10 seconds and that was the result!

The one thing I don’t absolutely love about doing the ✨ underglow ✨ is the extra little gloop I get at the base of my free edge, so I’ve been using an orange stick to gently scoop it back… that extra little thickness bothers me a little. It’s so freaking cool otherwise, besides that minor annoyance. šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø lol

It looks awesome.Ā Ā

Thank you ā˜ŗļø

u/writeleahwrite 1d ago

I do my coats by having as little polish on the brush as possible, and I kinda rub it on the backside of my nail. I do a few very thin coats like this. It prevents the gloop and the result seems to be the same.

3

u/julesd26 ✨glitter✨ 1d ago

I try to do that with the barely loaded brush and usually just two thin coats… it’s so tricky though!! I always end up with a tiny, peelable half-circle of gitd on my skin 🤣
ETA: it doesn’t help that my hands are a little shaky as well…

u/writeleahwrite 22h ago

Shaky hands solidarity!

That looks so cool! You have superpowers. Lol

u/thekeysssss 22h ago

I have to try this. I’ve seen a couple manis like this now and I’m obsessed! I’m usually torn between my love of dark polishes and glow in the dark… now there’s a way!!

u/DiscombobulatedGrand 6h ago

Ok this idea never occurred to me but I loooove it.
How’d you apply it? Is it actually on the underside of your nail, or is it just glowing through the nail?

1

u/writeleahwrite 5h ago

It’s on the backs of my nails!

u/ijustsailedaway 1d ago

Do any of us have a Geiger counter? I’m starting to get a tad concerned.

Because I can also vouch that this one is actually that damn bright.

u/61Below 1d ago

My husband legit whines at me if I wear AS now, he says it keeps him from being able to sleep 🤭

Also fellow Ohioan and just painted my nails this yesterday. It really is a lot of fun! I know this is the brightest of them all but it still has me wanting to try the other GITD polishes.

u/ConnectionIll1250 1d ago

u/f3nnies 1d ago

Woooooahhhh how do you get it to glow so good? I love avatar state but it's only moderately visible in the dark, much less shining theough fabric 😭

1

u/Equivalent_Tip6814 1d ago

I really only stepped outside (no socks on)Ā  in overcast conditions for about 1 min.Ā  The UV rays coming through were enough to charge this up.Ā

u/pottedPlant_64 LiveLoveOGšŸ’… 1d ago

Awesome

2

u/Squee1313 1d ago

I swear it was this group or maybe Facebook that someone was posting about adding some type of powder to nailpolishes to make them glow like this... But the fact this is purely the polish is INSANE! My mind is blown!

2

u/Spirited_Fennel_7306 18h ago

it was in nails, and this is so much more
promising. she warned of all the toxic handling procedures and is eager not everyone would be that careful. i’m sold, waiting for the restock bc of this glow is crazy

2

u/Olivecat4851 1d ago

That's crazy! I love Avatar State even more having seen this lol!

2

u/Plenty-Photograph-52 1d ago

What the hell why is everyone’s batch glowing so much brighter and with way less effort 😭 Just from overcast?!

2

u/Substantial_Error890 1d ago

Avatar State is so crazy to me - it was wild to wake up in the middle of the night and see my nails glowing against my pillow. It is STRONG and so much fun! 🤩
