KBShimmer: Suns Out, Tri-Thermal Collection

Evening friends!  I don't know what is going on with this weather but it is WACKY!  Decided to rain today after some gorgeous and perfect weather days (including a few very hot days).  So whatever, Mother Nature is crazy.  And my new master bedroom seems to be colder than the rest of the house.  Both of these make it quite hard to work with thermals!  Alright, so I'm talking about the KBShimmer  Suns Out Tri-Thermal Collection.  These are super fun polishes that have 3 different colors depending on your body temperature.  I am in awe (and a bit jealous) of the bloggers who were able to capture all 3 shades at once of these polishes. I tried and tried and even left one of them on for a good week and only ever saw the colors separately or the 2 shades.  So while I love them I do have to say I found it difficult to get them to work.  But even though I never managed all 3 colors in one picture I am in love with the colors here and will absolutely rock them during the Summer!  The Suns Out Collection is available NOW for $11 each or $90 for the set of 9.  Let's jump in and check out the fun!

Del Sol Color Changing Nail Polish

Hello again friends.  I'm being forced to just lay low today as I'm fighting a pretty good cold.  But it gives me time to catch up on posts so I'll take advantage of my being sick to do just that!   Fun little post for you this afternoon with some super cool color changing polishes.  Unlike thermals, these are solar powered changes, they change colors in the sunlight!  And it's a very easy transition, not requiring a bowl or warm or ice water for swatches and photos.  So 2 big thumbs up from me for ease of use.  Del Sol has a wide variety of products available on their website, including nail polish, hats, sunglasses, t-shirts and accessories.  I have some of the fabulous polishes in this post as well as some cool hair clips that my daughter modeled for me.  The best thing is you don't even need strong sunlight for them to work!  I had an overcast day and they all worked perfectly as soon as I walked outside.  You can pick up these great polishes for $10 each.  Other items range from $4 to $60.  Let's jump in and check out the post!

Superficially Colorful Lacquers: The Autumn Collection

Good afternoon!  Hope your Saturday is treating you well.  I just finished up 1 soccer game for the day, 2 were canceled, and now I am strongly suggesting to my husband that we go to the pumpkin patch since we don't have pumpkins yet!  So while I attempt to convince him of that you can enjoy another upcoming collection from Superficially Colorful Lacquers.  This is The Autumn Collection and it's a set of 4 thermal (color changing) polishes with a sprinkling of matte white glitters and a touch of shimmer.  I have a few of Jin's thermals and they are all stunning, but I have to admit these are my favorites that she's ever made (I suppose I could be biased since I am a huge fan of all things Fall).  The colors are so beautiful and the thermal works perfectly.  The Autumn Collection will be available on Monday 10/27 an 12pm EST.  Now let's jump in to the pictures and enjoy some beautiful Autumn colors.

All Fall Down is a beautiful "brown to orange thermal polish with golden and green shimmer."  It's inspired by "autumn leaves turning brown slowly and falling down."  I love both of the shades here.  The brown is rich and yummy and the orange looks just like a pumpkin shade!  Formula and application were both awesome.  I used 2 coats of All Fall Down for full coverage and 1 layer of topcoat.

This is Unbe-leaf-able.  While I loved all the colors in this collection I think Unbe-leaf-able is my favorite.  It's described as  "dark black-brown that changes into pink, with red-pink shimmer."  It's gorgeous!  Again, I totally love both shades in this polish.  Unbe-leaf-able had a fabulous formula and applied like a dream.  I used 2 coats and finished with 1 layer of topcoat.

Moving right along, this is A Summer's Wave Goodbye.  You know I love red-orange and yellow so this was perfectly dreamy for me!  A Summer's Wave Goodbye is an "orange leaning red when cold, that transforms into a bright light yellow when hot."  This definitely makes me nostalgic for warmer summer days.  The formula and application were both perfect.  A Summer's Wave Goodbye applied to full coverage in 2 easy coats.  I finished with 1 layer of topcoat.

Finally we've come to my second favorite of the collection, Buried Treasure.  Buried Treasure is a "dark forest green that turns into medium-light green, with green and blue shimmer."  Hullo gorgeous. I especially love the darker green shade here.  It'll be perfect to transition into winter months.  Formula and application were both wonderful.  I used 2 coats of Buried Treasure for full coverage 1 layer of topcoat.

I just thought I'd throw these in the end of the post.  Naomi and I both eneded up wearing Unbe-leaf-able once I finished swatching.  I actualy painted her nails while she was asleep so when she woke up she was so happy to see a pretty pink polish on her nails.  When I showed her that in cold water the polish changed color she was totally amazed and had to show her preschool teachers as soon as we got her to class that morning.

6 Harts Polish Secret Galaxy

Today I have one more 6 Harts polish to share with you.  Secret Galaxy is a stunning and sparkly color changing topper that makes regular creme polishes something to swoon over!

I started this mani with 2 coats each of Orly Calypso Breeze and Blue Collar as an accent nail.  Both of them are pretty enough on their own, but with 1 layer of Secret Galaxy the colors really come alive!  Secret Galaxy is an amazing color shifting topper that looks amazing layered over black, but I always like to try something different, hence the choice of blue polishes.  Secret Galaxy has this great shimmer that shifts from blue to purple.  The outside pictures only show the blue sparkle, but the inside pics show a bit of the purple.  You will see this shift better over a darker color like black which is displayed on the etsy listing.  If you want some seriously blingy nails and are not a fan of glitter bombs this is a great option for you.  The formula was wonderful, smooth and easily applied on the nails.  1 coat was absolutely sufficient for the desired effect.  I used 1 layer of topcoat to finish it off.  


You can purchase 6 Harts Polish Secret Galaxy and others on etsy.  You can follow them on Facebook for updates.  

Give me a "Like" on Facebook as well!
