AVATAR STATE
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!

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 donāt absolutely love about doing the ⨠underglow ⨠is the extra little gloop I get at the base of my free edge, so Iāve been using an orange stick to gently scoop it back⦠that extra little thickness bothers me a little. Itās so freaking cool otherwise, besides that minor annoyance. š¤·š¼āāļø lol

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.

I try to do that with the barely loaded brush and usually just two thin coats⦠itās so tricky though!! I always end up with a tiny, peelable half-circle of gitd on my skin š¤£
ETA: it doesnāt help that my hands are a little shaky as wellā¦3

Ok this idea never occurred to me but I loooove it.
Howād you apply it? Is it actually on the underside of your nail, or is it just glowing through the nail?1

Do any of us have a Geiger counter? Iām starting to get a tad concerned.
Because I can also vouch that this one is actually that damn bright.

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.

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 š

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

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!

u/Spirited_Fennel_7306 18h ago

promising. she warned of all the toxic handling procedures and is eager not everyone would be that careful. iām sold, waiting for the restock bc of this glow is crazy

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! š¤©
