The advantage of thermal nails

It’s all a question of who-who-who-chemistry, as Ditonellapiaga and Rector sing: thermal enamel changes color according to temperature basically if it gets cold or hot. Between nail art addicted thermal nails promise to sparkle. Indeed, since du ‘is better’ than uanwhat’s better than that a single enamel to be declined in two colors at the same time? The chameleon effect is guaranteed: dipping the nails in hot or cold water, but also simply with all the thermal changes, the manicure will switch to other shades.

In general it is always about semi-permanent nail polishes (like that of Ferragni) or in gel with an iridescent but delicate effect to be exploited both with light shades and with darker colors, perfect for the cold period. Alternatively, to obtain thermal nails worthy of the name, you can look for the so-called enamels solar activethat they change color when exposed to direct sunlight and manage to be less aggressive on the nail.
