Kelvin Bleu - Polished by KTP

Hi!

I'm super excited to show you a polish that I've been lusting after for a long time. Polished by KTP is a brand that I've been seeing popping up on places like Makeup Withdrawal and her photos made me want them even more. I finally managed to get hold of a couple of them and the first that I'm showing you today is 'Kelvin Bleu' - Holographic Version. 'Kelvin Bleu' is a thermal polish that changes colour with body temperature.

I love this polish so much! The first thing I have to say about this is that the quality of 'Kelvin Bleu' is outrageously good. I wore this polish for 6 days and it only chipped on a couple of nails on the 6th day because I gave my nails a beating at work. It still looked as good as new at the beginning of the 6th day though. The top photo is the cold colour and it is so striking. The bottom colour is the hot colour.

The change of colour of 'Kelvin Bleu' was beautiful, though very distracting! I found myself checking what temperature my hands were so often. The polish is quite sensitive, so it would change fairly readily. A lot of the time it would be around the colours seen in this photo, but it would go to the extremes quite often too. I love how you can get an instant gradient as you are changing temperatures sometimes. The holo in this polish made it just that much more beautiful.

I used 3-4 thin coats for these photos. 3 coats was ample for coverage in real life but the hot pale colour was slightly sheer in my photos so I added an extra coat to some fingers on my right hand.

I'm so glad I got my sticky little mitts on a couple of these polishes and I am looking forward to trying 'Being In The Pink'! I will certainly have to try some more of Katherine's gorgeous creations soon too.
