Just a little back ground knowledge i know about uv changing color nail polishes . If you don't know , there are actually 2 famous uv changing color nail polish in the US , one is DEL SOL and the other is RUBY WING

DEL SOL VS RUBY WING
 Del Sol is considered as a fail brand of uv changing nail polish because the colors the produce is very old fashion and are not fashionable . Also the color changing transition is very very slow . Ruby wing and Del Sol is actually the same technology and Ruby wing is labeled as the perfected version of Del Sol . They have perfected the nail polish and the colors are fun , young , wild and trendy . Ruby Wing is actually from Solar Club LLC from New York and is the sister company of color club
