We were mad about magnetized nail polish. Totally in love with textured polish. Went silly for shatter. And gel polish is still a firm favourite. But we’ve just discovered another kind of polish, and we’re hot for it, because it is cool!
Thermal nail polish, also known as colour change polish, remind us of those funky mood rings we wore when we were kids. They’ve been around for a couple of years, but with winter coming we think they’re a fun way to brighten up your look, while amusing yourself on a dreary day.

So how does it work? Is it magic? Not quite. There’s a whole science involved, which I could try (and fail) to explain to you, so instead if you’re interested click here. Basically, in a nutshell, thermal nail polishes change colour based on your body temperature and the environment you’re in. So if it’s cold in your bathroom and you step into a hot shower your nails will change colour. If you’ve been in a blistering hot office then step out into icy temperatures, they’ll change colour again, some polishes will even change is such a way that they create a gorgeous ombre look.
They’re a whimsical way to switch up your style, and they’re actually kind of ideal for people who’d like to change their nail polish more regularly, but don’t have the time or patience.
