Polished By KPT Blue Is Beautiful Thermal

Oh how I love thermals and this is no exception. I think KPT thermals are some of the best as they are super reactive and the changes in colour are noticeable.

I own three KPT thermals and today i thought I would show you all Blue is Beautiful. Not the most imaginative name but its the polish that really counts!

I do tend to fine thermals are a bit thicker than normal polishes but I have read that that is to do with the amount of pigment needed to create a thermal.

On with the polish.....

I used three thin coats for the photos below

When COLD this polish is a deep blue. The glitter is a micro holo type glitter. The glitter is noticeable in its cold and warm state. It is very jam packed with glitter!

 This is a deep and jelly type of polish. The glitter builds up depth.

In its TRANSITION state the nails go from a very light and sheer glittery blue to the deep blue pictured above. It creates a lovely gradient effect.

In its WARM state the polish is quite sheer and you can see your nail line. As you all know I do not like a VNL but this polish is so so beautiful I'm almost able to ignore it. 

Almost.

I know I do say this a lot but I really really love this polish. Its colour change is very noticeable and I think that's a must when it comes to thermals. I mean if you cant really tell its changed then whats the point?!

This was also smooth on the nail so one coat of top coat was all that was needed.

What do you think of thermals? Do you own any?

Polish Me Silly Pinky Swear I'm a Star Thermal Indie Polish

Today I have another beautiful thermal polish by Polish Me Silly! 

I LOVE THERMALS!! 

My nails are at that length where you can see the transition all the time so I get the gradient effect which is great.

This is called Pinky Swear I'm A Star.

 Its a pink when cold and white when warm polish packed with glitter, this includes pink and green stars!! 

This is the polish when cold.... 

Its pink.... and I love it! I think I may have been converted to pink as recently I have been wearing it quite abit! 

This is a funky bright pink (brighter than the pics) and I really like the green stars with this! I love pink and green together! 

Here is the polish warm...

AGAIN I love this shade too! You can really see all the glitter and who doesn't like a white crelly!!??

Transition shot..

I <3 it!! 

and finally the bottle shot (cold) 

I really love this polish. The formula was a little on this thicker side but in no way messed up my application. I used three coats for these pics and one topcoat. 

The stars of course can stick up a bit but that doesn't bother me at all. 

Its a funky bright polish perfect for summer!

What do you all think of this?? Are you a fan of thermals? 

In other news my new bulb came SMASHED! annoying!

Polish Me Silly Grape Intentions Thermal Polish

Hello my dears!

I have had a nice relaxing week spending some time with my family as my husband is not at work!

I have a bloody fantastic polish for you today! ITS A THERMAL!!!

I have previously tried thermals before but the colour change was underwhelming to say the least. This polish you can for sure see the change!

My family loved this polish, they thought it was like witchcraft or something. None of them have ever even heard of thermals before. 

Noobs.

This is Grape Intentions by Polish Me Silly.

BOTTLE CLOSE UP

TRANSITION 

TRANSITION 

WARM

Its purple when cold and pink when warm. Because I have longish nails I often see a gradient which looks so good. Its also packed with glitter but I found the larger hexes a bit of a pain so had to manually move some of them. 

I used three thin coats to get the finish in the pictures, it is a jelly polish. What would happen if you layered it over a different base colour?!!??

I really love this. I'm hooked on thermals and I do have another to show you soon!

What do you think? 

Special FX Chameleon Swatch and Review

This is a Special FX Polish called Chameleon. 

I will admit right now that when I saw this in the bottle I was hesitant, Im not a fan of oil slick type of polishes and when I saw the gold hues to it, I was really put off. 

I am NOT a fan of gold HaHa!

But boy was I wrong! 

This polish is beautiful on and it has a really deep sexy purple base that catches the light.
As you move your hands around you can see the different colours come to life! 

I really love the way it makes my hands look LOL!

The pictures are with 2 coats and no topcoat. 

The formula was good, first coat was streaky as hell but a thicker second coat sorted that out. 

The brush is too thin for my liking though.

The bottle really looks cheap, I am sorry but to me it looks like something you would see in Poundland or something. I feel it lets down the product inside. 

But other than that I am surprisingly in love with this polish!

FX Nails sent me this product for review and unfortunately I cant find this for sale on their site. I will look into it and update this when I get more info

You can look at FX Nails other products including their Fickles Heat sensitive range (keep your eyes peeled for swatches!)
