The New Glow Powder\'s Glow Just Doesn\'t Last!
I was expecting so much from the latest form of glow powder but I have to admit it doesn't last worth a darn! I don't know the technical name of this stuff but it's the latest and greatest glow powder available. The initial glow is so nice and bright and intense and seems so promising and I can use the light from the glow in the first several minutes of charging as a light itself! It dims so quickly though, that it just isn't worth the hassle. I only use the green which is the easiest for the human eye to see in the dark but still, it isn't worth the trouble.
I've heard that it should last for a full 8-10 hours at reduced glow but my eyes can't even discern it after about an hour. I'm using it in a clear nail polish base. Maybe it's my 55 year old eyes but after extensive usage, it's a bust! Anyone else have the same results?
