Hello Lovelies! Happy Friday!!! I will have a Flakie Friday post up for you later this evening, but right now I want to share some awesome thermal polish with you.
Awhile back I showed you an awesome Black Based Thermal Polish called "Get Figgy With It" from Candied Lustre. Unfortunately my swatching was set off course afterwards with everything that has happened with my mother and the Cancer, and I wasn't able to share the other 2 thermals with you as soon as I wanted. I know several of you were looking forward to checking them out, and I thank you all for your patience. Im starting to get back into the swing of things, although this weekend is a crazy busy time for the pet care industry, and I have to go to my mom's twice a day to give her a shot in the stomach. I am a former EMT so I get to do the needle pokes. Not fun, but at least I know that the medication is going where it's supposed to, and she says it doesn't hurt at all when I administer them. Yay!
I have 2 gorgeous thermals for you today, so let's get to it!
First up is Candied Lustre Cafe Au Lait, a beautiful Gold to Bronze black based thermal with light, scattered holo. This is the color that really stole my heart! There is just something about this color init's cold state that really took my breath away. The holo was hard to capture, but you can see the sparkle.
This is 3 coats of Cafe Au Lait in it's "warm" state, with top coat:
Beautiful! I love the vibrant gold, and that subtle, scattered holo shimmer is just beautiful.
But here's the real kicker....
Cafe Au Lait, in her "cold" state:
*Falls over* I am so incredibly in love with this color! Both shades are just stunning, and the color change is quick, maybe 10-15 seconds once your hands hit something cool. Love!
Next up is Candied Lustre "Blacquer The Berry". When I first saw this name, I chuckled out loud - great play on words! And the polish? Blacquer The Berry is a beautiful soft, lavender with scattered holo that changes to a deep, Berry Purple. This girl is a crazy beauty too!
This is 3 coats of Blacquer The Berry in her "warm" state, with top coat:
*Swoon!* Oh, how gorgeous is that purple?!?! This color is already stuning, but add that color change? *sighs*..you have to see it!
This is Blacqer The Berry in her "cold" state:
Love, Love, Love!!!! This girl reminds me a bit of Catrice Dirty Berry here. I adore the berry purples the begin with, but add a little sparkle and I fall head over heels in love.
Both Cafe Au Lait and Blacquer The Berry are black based thermal, which means that the color change will be darker and more vampy as opposed to bright, which is right up my alley. I love bright thermals, but these black based lovelies are just killer. I see backups of these beauties in my future!
Cafe Au Lait and Blacquer The Berry have similar formulas, although BLB seems a little thicker. Neither was problematic though, and I had no issues with thickening or gooping. Application was stellar for both, although I did have a tiny bit of balding at the cuticle line with BLB, but that evened out perfectly with the second coat. BLB is also on the sheer side, and if you're not a fan od some slight VNL, you'll want to use all 3 coats. These particular thermals also have a very awesome almost suede finish without topcoat, which makes them even cooler in my book. Ive shown them both with top coat here, but without they look equally fantastic.
If you are a fan of thermal polishes you NEED these. Especially those of you that dig thermals, but don't want a shocking color change or alot of glitter. I am just madly in love with these!
You can check out these beauties as well as a ton of other awesome polish at Candied Lustre Nail Polish on Etsy. These thermals run $7.50 each (a steal!!) for full sized bottles. Be sure to take a look around, Candied Luster has a bunch of amazing polish available. You can also follow Candied Lustre on Facebook for new relases, re-stock indo, and swatches.
What do you think of these Black Based Thermals?
I'll be back this evening with a really fun Flakie Friday!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
