PolishTBH: Midnight

Ahh, I am finally getting back to blogging. Blogging really requires discipline and I am slightly lacking in it. :S But from now on, I will try to blog about most of my manis! :)

To kick start, I have PolishTBH Midnight here. I thought it would be a blue polish but it turns out to be a really dark blue or close to purple polish. There are sliver medium and small hex glitters, blue small glitters and a dash of holo glitters. The holo glitters are more obvious in the bottle than on my fingers though. For the mani below, I have applied 2 thick coats and did a little placement with the glitters. The polish is quite smooth to apply and it does not thicken during usage. This polish really has a lot of depth and the silver hex glitters just enhance it. And because of this polish, I think I am starting to like all polishes with silver hex glitters!

PolishTBH : How I Troll

How I Troll is my first thermal polish! I really love the transition of transparent (warm) to hot pink (cold) I see in pictures of that polish. However, I live in Singapore and it's extremely warm here so I am a bit worried that the thermal might not work well in their weather. So, I have put this polish to the test! Let's look at the photos to see how the colors change in Singapore!

L-R: Two Fruity colors (unnamed) as bases and PolishTBH How I Troll.

At ~33 degrees,

The gradient is not present at this normal temperature in Singapore.

At ~0 degrees,

I was holding an ice pack when taking this picture. The gradient is obvious and I really love it like this! :)

At ~20-23 degrees,

This picture was taking in a school's lecture hall. My hands were pretty cold from the strong air-con in the hall and so the whole nails transit to pink color.

Conclusion: I feel that thermal polishes might not work that well in Singapore, especially during this super hot period. I guess maybe it will work better in December when the temperature drops? Will try again to see if it works again next time. :) But still, the glitter mix in How I Troll is quite cute so I don't mind even if it doesn't show a gradient. :)

Thanks for reading! :)
