Polished by KPT The Basic Series Collection

Hi Everyone! Today I have a post for you which is a few days late, but hopefully better late than never. The Polished by KPT Basic Series Collection launched on Saturday and try as I might I could not find the time to post before the release and give these beauties justice they deserve. The collection features five creamy pastel thermals which are perfect for Spring. Don't let the collection name fool you, there is nothing basic about these thermals. The name implies that they purposefully lack any added glitter, shimmer or glass flecks to let your imagination roam and decorate as you please. I happen to think they are simply beautiful on their own...


Delilac
A multi-color thermal which transitions from a pale lilac when warm to blue/pink in transition and lavender when cold. Although you will not see all the colors of this beauty on your nails at once, it is possible to see anywhere from one to three. I wore this for a few days and often found my nails in the pale lilac with pink tips transition when warm and different shades of lavender when cold. This has a great formula. I used three coats to ensure full coverage in the warm (lightest) state. It dries with a bit of a satin finish so I used a top coat with it.

Still cold, but slightly warming up...

Kiss Me Before Sunrise
A thermal which transitions from a pale peachy yellow when warm to a peachy orange when cold. This looks like peaches and cream to me. It is just perfect. This also has a great formula which is easy to apply. Three coats provides good coverage in both the warm and cold states. It has a bit of a satin finish when dry so a topcoat is a must for a nice shine.

Living on a Breeze

A thermal which transitions from a pale pink when warm to a rosy pink when cold. A really sweet and beautiful shade. Great formula with easy applications. Once again, I used three coats plus a top coat for these swatches to ensure good coverage in the warm state...

A thermal which transitions from lime green when warm to a minty teal green when cold. In transitions, this color makes me think of melons. Yummy. Same great formula as with all the shades above. Easy application and full coverage at three coats. Swatches are with a top coat...
