In progress: a color change polish!

So in my downtime I've been working on new colors, and I couldn't resist when I found this color changing black pigment.  It turns from black to CLEAR - look!



So now I'd like some feedback.  As is it can be worn over any color and will reveal the color underneath when your nails are warm (which if they're short like mine is most of the time).  BUT I could add color to the polish and it would be more of a "traditional" color change, say from red to black, or blue to black etc.

Personally I like the idea that it's customizable, but I want to hear from you!

    Maybe you can do a collection? For example, have one polish that goes clear and have the rest change to a complimentary colour. I'd love to get my hands on one that goes clear =)

    This pigment reminds me of a polish that Pointless Cafe posted up a while ago here: http://www.pointlesscafe.com/2012/04/sweet-colors-temperature-changing.html There were quality issues with the subsequent bottles she purchased though.

      Thanks so much for the link! Color wise it does look very similar. I'm curious how much those were, because this stuff is CRAZY expensive.

      "SGD75 for 5 bottles inclusive of postage with tracking number"

      So about $12.20 USD incl. postage per bottle.

    I would like clear to black with black glitter of some kind. Then I could have a funky chunky colour changing fabulousness!

      I was thinking that same thing! How fun to have black hexes that magically show when it's warm.

      I think that would be amazing! Even if it was not hexes, something like Ninja Vs. Pirate only sans.. ninja? Which is the ninja?! Anyway, hexes would be pretty wicked. I think a top coat is a much more cost effective product. They you can have your way with it over everything!

    I think I like the clear to black too. It would be awesome to see what was underneath that black...like a red....ooooo lala

      Next on my to do list is trying this over red. I saw a picture of a black to red color changing polish once and it made quite an impression.

    I love the clear to black alone, as it is. You can always add a glitter topcoat over!

    LOVE this idea and it's totally awesome to leave the base clear, makes it so much more versatile!

    I like how it reveals the color you put it over! There are already color changing pink to purple and whatnot but i have yet to see one like this! It would be amazeballs!!! You always get me so giddy over polish!!! LOL
