Hello lovelies! Man, it feels like forever since I've posted! We have had a series of huge storms out here and my power keeps getting knocked out. On Friday, we had the biggest storm I've seen in a good decade - complete with 89mph winds, tornado sightings, flooding (in fact, a few friends were stranded in their cars, which were flooded), and 27,000 homes and business without power. PNM is actually STILL working on restoring power to some people. Luckily my power is back on, and I've been working on swatching these glorious thermals for you. I feel horrible that I haven't been able to post them sooner, but it's really hard to swatch in the dark. :)
This post has been a pest as well! I actually had to work on photographing this polish 3 times! Every time I would get photos uploaded, cropped and watermarked, my darling husband would shut down the computer without saving anything (or asking If I needed to save anything) and I would lose everything. Seriously, 3 times. Looks like I need to start saving after every single step. Crop, save. Watermark, save. Blah blah blah. It's fairly time consuming to have to go through over 200 photos, find the right ones, crop and watermark.
Anyway......
Today I have the second polish from Candied Lustre's upcoming thermal collection. This one is called Teal My Secrets, and is a light blue to vibrant teal thermal polish packed with holo dust and holo glitters.
This is the one that I first unwrapped and literally gasped when I saw the color change. Honestly, it's just so beautiful in both and warm and cold states that I get a little misty. ;) Also, I have no idea why these darn collages keep coming out so pixelated! But you get the idea, right? Let's look at some better shots of this beauty!
This is 3 coats of Teal My Secrets when warm. Sorry about the lobster hands - I use ice water to capture the color change when photographing thermals, and it makes me all sorts of pink. Thankfully, none of you are here to ogle my skin tone, right? ;)
Man, that is beautiful! I have a soft spot for sparkly light blues and this is just too pretty for words. That sparkle just give me butterflies! But.....that is nothing compared to what happens when this polish cools down.
Same polish, just cold (also, sorry about being waterlogged here. It's like my cuticles sucked in all the water and vanished or something!:
Hello!!!! That is one of the most beautiful shades of teal I have ever worn! *Fans self* I dare you to tell me that is not just stunning. The one things that I need to note here is that the holo effect is NOT as diminished as it appears here. These were taken indoors in my light box after immersing my hands in ice water, which created a bit of a glare. The holo effect is actually just as strong as when this polish is warm.
Teal My Secrets formula is, as I'm learning is customary with Candied Luster polishes, an absolute dream. No thickening, glopping, gopping, etc. Application was so darn fabulous that I didn't even have to really bother with cleanup - so easy to control. Also no dragging or balding and dry time was excellent, even before top coat. TMS dries nice and smooth, so no need for anything other than my usual top coat. Wear was fabulous with no signs of wear and tear after almost 2 days. Impressive!!!
All I can really say is...love. Just absolute love. Bri is just amazing with thermals so I was expecting nothing less than fabulous, but these are just really stealing my heart. And I still cannot get over that Teal....Rawr!
You can find Candied Lustre Polish on Etsy, and I highly recommend heading over and taking a peek. This collection is not available just yet, but will be launching in August. I promise I'll post the exact launch date as soon as I know (I know a couple of you are stalking Etsy already!). I highly recommend also following Candied Lustre on Facebook and Instagram for release updates, sales info, and more awesome swatches.
What do you think of Teal My Secrets? Are you a sucker for blues/teals like I am?
I'll be back later this evening with the 3rd beauty from this collection. The 4th and final thermal will be up tomorrow morning, so be sure to check back often! You don't want to miss any of these babies!
Thanks for stopping by and Happy Polishing!
