Polished by KPT - Hyacinth & Let's Get Peachy!

Press Sample

Hello hello

How is everyone? I am still crazily trying to work out how to manage being so busy, but hopefully I will continue to find my groove at uni etc. Meanwhile it has been a joy to be wearing the latest thermals from Polished by KPT's 'March Into Spring' collection. I have 2 more to show you today - 'Hyacinth' and 'Let's Get Peachy!'.

This is the polish I was telling you that I was wearing at the end of the last post. This is a beauty and a half! I absolutely love love love it.

Starting at the top 'Hyacinth', when cold, is the most gloriously rich blue/purple/indigo (I can't decide which) colour. The middle mid colour show the beautiful periwinkle leaning colour that 'Hyacinth' becomes. In hot temperatures, 'Hyacinth' becomes almost cornflower blue. Also, can we just take a moment to look at the shimmer and flakes in this baby. The shimmer in this is a pinky colour and it seems to just play against the blues so perfectly. The flakes also catch the light and play so beautifully against the colour of the polish. The best part? This is so sensitive to temperature changes, it seemed to be different every time I looked at it. Katherine, you are a wizard putting so many things I love into one bottle of brilliance <3

This is 'Let's Get Peachy!', the most subtle of the Spring collection. I love how different this polish is to anything in my stash. The top photo is 'Let's Get Peachy!' in cold temperatures, next hot, and then transitioning. In my photos it is a bit hard to see the transition and though it's subtle it's a bit more obvious in real life.


Both of these were easy to apply. I used 3 coats of 'Hyacinth' and the same of 'Let's Get Peachy!' (which is slightly sheerer, though perfectly buildable).
