Good Morning lovelies! I'd say Happy Monday but I don't want you all to throw rocks at me. ;) My 500 Follower giveaway is now closed and I will be picking a winner tonight. I do have another giveaway coming up within the next few weeks (I'll be giving away 2 Pure Nail Oil starter kits! for my 2 year Blogaversary!), so be sure to check back.

This morning I have an awesome Thermal polish to share with you! I do have another post for today, so let's get right to it!

I love Instagram. I have come across so many awesome new Indie Brands while browsing IG, and Live.Life.Polished is one of the most awesome IG finds IMO. Created by the ever so awesome Tammy, Live.Life.Polishes boasts some of the most vibrant polishes around, and some seriously awesome color changers, including photo-chromatic polishes (polish that changes in sunlight)! I have several of Tammy's pretties to share with you, but I was really itching to try this one.

Blue Lagoon is a thermal jelly polish, changing from a gorgeous Deep Green when warm to a stunning Navy Blue when cool. This is one of the most pigmented thermals in my stash, which makes it immediately awesome! It also has one of the longest lasting color changes as well. Bonus!!!!

This is 3 coats of Blue Lagoon with top coat, in it's "Warm" state (NOTE: Yes, I have some bubbles here. I photographed this in it's cool state first, which means dipping my fingers in Ice Water. If your polish isn't dry, this can cause issues. Oops!):







 I adore this green! Check out how saturated that color is! Love it! This shade of green makes me all sorts of happy!

Since this is a thermal polish, I figure you want to see the color change as well, right? ;) Here's Blue Lagoon in her "Cool" state. As I mentioned before, I dip my fingers in ice water to get the color change to stay under the lights, so there are water droplets on my nails - it's not flaws in the polish.







I am a sucker for blues, but this is the perfect Navy Blue. Nice and saturated, bold and sexy!

Blue Lagoon's formula was quite awesome - thick, but not too thick to work with, no thickening during use and zero glopping. Application was excellent with no dragging or balding. Dry time was impressive, with each coat drying before I could finish both hands. This baby is a touch sheer though, so you will need 2-3 good coats for full opacity. Wear was excellent as well, with no visible wear or chips at 24 hours. As an added bonus, Blue Lagoon left zero staining behind, despite being so pigmented. The color change lasts a very long time - I noted that my nails were still Navy Blue  a good 5 minutes after dunking them in cold water, and that was under my incredibly hot photo lamps. Not only did the color change last longer than most thermals, but the transition stage lasted awhile as well, leaving that cool 2 toned look. Blue Lagoon is just a great thermal polish!

I think this may be my very fave of my thermals so far. Both warm and cool colors are gorgeous and among my fave colors to wear on my nails, and the color change is beyond awesome. If you are a thermal fan, you seriously need this!

You can find Live.Life.Polished at Store Envy. Tammy has a ton of awesome polish, including thermals glitters ( some of which I'll have swatches of this week). Full size polishes will run you a mere $6, minis $3. I urge you to check them out - there is some serious awesomeness going on there! The summer collection will be coming out soon as well, and boasts some awesome neons. You can follow Tammy on Instagram at @teajayess for release updates, re-stock info, etc.

What do you think of Blue Lagoon? Are you a fan of thermal polish?

I have some fun with water decals coming up later today, as well as some NPB, Sally Hansen Sugar Coat and more Nail Art for this week.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
