MTL Creations - Thermal Collection


Hiya guys! It's the start of a brand new week and I am back again with more from the lovely MTL Creations. I will actually be reviewing quite a few of their collections throughout the month, so get ready to see a lot from their store! Today I have swatches for the long awaited thermal collection that has been in the works for months. As you guys know I am a huge fan of thermals so I'm very excited about the collection.

MTL Creations - Thermal Collection

The Thermals by MTL Creations will be releasing today May 4th at 4PM EST. The entire collection will be available as a collection and individually in both mini and full size bottles. As a reminder, MTL Creations is based in Canada but does ship to the US.

Bella Beretta

Bella Beretta is a shimmering thermal that is pastel pink when warm and transitions into a bright pink when cold. This is so adorably girly and fun - plus I love the name. I always have an affinity for dramatically noticeable transitions so this one does hit the mark in that regard. The formula applied well, but I did have a bit of visible pigment make my swatch (see ring nail). For these swatches I used three thin coats and sealed them in with Seche Vite.

Tammy Gun is a shimmering thermal that is light teal when warm and transitions into a bright aqua when cold. Doesn't this feel very mermaid-ish? I love the transition, it's very noticeable and dramatic with the enhancement of the satin-shimmer finish. The formula applied well, but I did find the brush strokes to be a little noticeable due to the satin-like finish. However a nice thick layer of topcoat does well in smoothing out any crinkles. For these swatches I used three thin coats and sealed them in with Seche Vite.

Machine Gun Molly is a shimmering thermal that is light silver when warm and transitions into a gun-smoke grey when cold. Unfortunately I will start by saying I am not a fan of the particular tones. I was really hoping I would end up loving this more than I did when I had it on. It doesn't necessarily mesh well with my skin tone, in my opinion. The formula applied decently, but the brush strokes are very visible and causes a streaky finish. For these swatches I used three thin coats and sealed them in with Seche Vite.

Shotgun Sally

Shotgun Sally is a shimmering thermal that is light grey when warm and transitions into a dark blue when cold. Hands down my favorite among the entire collection! Definitely a must-have for anyone whose a fan of thermals. It transition between colors without any issues. Nice smooth formula and consistency, not too thin or too thick. The first layer was surprisingly opaque and the layers applied evenly throughout. For these swatches I used two thin coats and sealed them in with Seche Vite.

Overall I am thrilled to finally see their release of thermals, but I wish the shades appealed to me more. Like in most collections there is a must-have though and that would clearly have to be Shotgun Sally. From the shades in the transition to the formula, this polish is downright gorgeous. I am also definitely excited for future thermals, which hopefully will include some unique transitions! As I mentioned before, The Thermals by MTL Creations will be releasing today May 4th at 4PM EST. The entire collection will be available as a collection and individually in both mini and full size bottles.

Are you guys fans of thermals like me? If so, which one shown here was your favorite?
