Have you ever looked across at your Smiski collection as it gets dark, watching them transition from quirky daytime companions to mystical nighttime guardians? There's something magical about how these figures glow-in-the-dark. Have you ever wondered why? Let's dive into how they do this and uncover how you can get the most glow from your collection!

How do Smiski glow in the dark?

Smiski are made from specially formulated phosphorescent materials that grasp onto light and then gradually release it. It's like their own little superpower, transforming the figures into miniature light batteries and allowing them to unleash that familiar magical glow. Some figures such as those in the Smiski Cheer Series, use a second shade of green or blue that doesn't light up — this is to enhance the imaginative glow of the figure that emerges after dark.

Charging Your Smiski: 5 Tips for Maximum Glow

So, we've unraveled the science bit, but how do we make our Smiski buddies beam their brightest at night? Easy! Give them a sunbath or a light spa. Yep, any bright light will do the trick – sunshine is their favourite, but a lamp light works wonders as well. Here’s how to get the best magical glow:

  1. Give Them a Light Bath: Position your Smiski where they can get plenty of light during the day. Window sills or shelves bathed in sunlight are perfect spots. Remember, the longer, the better!

  2. Rotate & Repeat: Rotate throughout the day to give each figure its time in the limelight, ensuring all get a chance to shine equally.

  3. Set Up Your Night Time Display: To enhance their glow, try experimenting with different display setups. Placing them next to mirrors and reflective objects can amplify their light, upping your Smiski glow-in-the-dark game.

  4. Darker the Better: This one might seem obvious, but if you've spent the day charging your Smiski, be sure to make your room as dark as possible at night. Even small amounts of ambient light can steal the show - so blinds down and doors closed.
