Ah sunshine! It brings flowers, Vitamin D, chirping birds and now, color changing polish!
Ruby Wing polishes are unique, in that they change colors. However, unlike the temperature-dependent polishes that you regularly see (that change when you stick your hand under cold water), the Ruby Wing collections require real sunlight to change. How does it work?

| MAGIC! |
Not really. It's super secret technology, called
SolarActive® technology.
But it really does seem magical! The colors all look one way when you're indoors. Then, as if by some sorcery, they instantly begin to transform as soon as you're in the sunlight. It happens quickly too, with full effect in direct sunlight seen in under one minute.
I was really impressed with the transformation. Let's take a look.
Disclaimer: I am taking pictures of the same bottles in the indoor and outdoor shots. I have not switched bottles. Like I said...magic!

First up is
Poppy. I use two coats for this swatch, which was surprising since it's a neon pink! But then...stick it in the sun and...

It goes to a dark, vampy deep magenta. WHAT?! I think the coolest effect is when one side is more exposed than the other, and you get the most perfect gradient look. Too bad you can't lock that in as it's happening!
The bottle colors as they mixed were pretty rad too.
To complement this pink, Color Society sent along an awesome gold, Sunflower.

Indoors, you can see that's it's a bit of a soft, yellow gold. The mix of glitter is amazing too. I used two regular coats to get the level of glitter in this swatch. Now moving outdoors...

It goes copper! Not quite full copper, but copper-gold. And it's
soooooo shiny! (See the reflection of the polish on my pinky reflecting off my ring finger?)
Now what happens when you pair them together? I just did a simple stripe down the center of each nail, to watch it go from pop princess party mani, to sultry and rich mani.

My first experience with solar polish was awesome. This stuff surprised me, and I want to wear it in the wild to experience it in real life! Awesome work Ruby Wings, and thank you for the polishes Color Society!
