Good afternoon! I have 2 more soak off gel polishes from Madam Glam to share with you today. These are from their new Chameleon Gel line where the gel changes colors depending on the temperature (aka: thermal polish). There are 16 different Madam Glam Chameleon Gels available on the site as of today, so tons to choose from. I posted sneak peek videos of the color change for these on instagram last week, but I’ll include those in this post in case you missed them.

New to soak off gel polish? I previously reviewed Madam Glam Honeydew so I urge you to visit that post if you haven’t before–it has step by step instructions and photos on how to apply soak off gel polish. These polishes were applied using a 12W LED lamp to cure each polish layer, including the gel base and gel top coats(not shown). Gel polish cannot dry without a UV light, so please keep that in mind before you purchase any. You can purchase a light from Madam Glam or on Amazon. These can be worn for a couple of weeks without chips so they definitely have advantages over regular polish.  You can also check out some of my other Madam Glam swatches here.Madam Glam Chameleon Gels Collage

Madam Glam Do You Really Know Me?
A soak off gel polish that shifts from a violet when warm to a deep red when cold with sparse silver micro glitter.
I’m showing three coats below with the base and top coat gel polishes.
I’ve noticed that the two Chameleon Gels have thicker formulas than the other regular gels I have tried. This wasn’t a problem, though, because I just wiped a lot more off of the brush before applying it to the nails. I really like this color change, the two colors seem so odd to pair together but they are really neat looking when in transition. The warm color (which shows most of the time for me here in Florida) is in my favorite color family so I love wearing it!

Here is a gif of my color change with this polish, dipping in warm and ice water (actual time, no speeding up):

Madam Glam Heaven
Soak off gel polish that is a magenta pink while warm and changes to a blue-toned purple while cold. There are also sparse silver micro glitters included.
I’m showing three coats below with top and base coats.
Again, the formula was a bit thicker than the non-chameleon gels for me, but I just monitored how much polish was on the brush before applying. I like this pairing of colors together!

A note about the Chameleon Gels: they are the same price as the regular soak off polishes and base/top coat, but they are in a smaller bottle. Below is a side by side photo against the regular bottles. Chameleon Gels are in 10ml bottles, regular Gels are in 15ml. I personally think it’s awesome that they didn’t up the price for the new kind of formula–these bottles are already so much larger than some of the gel polish brands I see in local stores.

What do you think of these thermal Chameleon soak off gel polish colors by Madam Glam? Which is your favorite? I love them and I can’t wait to try more. There are currently 83 gel polish color options on the Madam Glam site, plus 16 Chameleon thermal gel colors. Wear them alone or in nail art, like I did two months ago!
Each polish(base coat, top coat, or color) retails for $19.95 each. There are a lot of sales on the Madam Glam site (currently free worldwide shipping for orders over $40), so make sure you keep any eye out for those!
Thanks so much for reading!
