How do I prolong the shine of my Smiski?
Smiski are phosphorescent figurines created by Toru Soeya, CEO of Dreams Inc., in 2009. They quickly gained popularity across Japan and then around the world thanks to their ability to glow in the dark.
Born within the same company as the famous Sonny Angels, the Smiski are small blue or green figurines part of the kawaii culture while maintaining a minimalist appearance. Sold in blind box series made up of approximately 7 figurines each, these figures represent house spirits, hidden in the corners of rooms, discreetly carrying out everyday tasks: they are said to be inspired by the "house spirits" of Japanese folklore. Their ability to glow in the dark is due to their manufacturing material composed of ATBC-PVC plastic mixed with phosphorescent material. In order to maintain an optimal glow, it is advisable to follow these few recommendations: firstly, avoid exposing them directly to the sun and prioritize an artificial light such as LED or a desk lamp: prolonged exposure to UV rays can damage a Smiski. It is important to keep them in a good environment that will not affect the materials used and will not deform the figurine: a dry place, away from direct sunlight and at room temperature makes a perfect place to store your Smiski.
In conclusion, Smiski are much more than just figurines: they act like little guardians of the house who bring a touch of fantasy to our daily lives. To preserve them in the long term, everything depends on good maintenance: favor exposure to LED lights and avoid UV rays in order to protect their material. By following these tips, we ensure that our minimalist companions continue to shine with the same intensity, even hidden in their corner.
