Watch your manicure transform with the GLOSS Thermal Collection — color-shifting gel polishes that change hue with temperature. Each shade moves between two distinct tones as your client’s body heat fluctuates, creating a mood-nail effect that clients keep talking about long after they leave the salon.

Three ultra-pigmented thermal shades:

  • Alter Red — crimson to terracotta
  • Alter Grape — deep violet to dusty lavender
  • Alter Pink — rich berry to sheer blush

Each shade delivers full, even coverage in one to two coats and a flawless color shift without patchiness or fading. Formulated to the same professional standard as all GLOSS gel polishes — high pigment load, soak-off formula, UV/LED compatible.

  • Cure time: 60 seconds under a 48W+ LED lamp
  • Wear time: 3–4 weeks on natural nails
  • Best results: apply over GLOSS Rubber Base and seal with GLOSS Top Coat

Temperature-reactive nail color is one of the most requested salon add-ons in 2026. Stock the Thermal Collection and give your clients something they can’t stop staring at.

Frequently asked questions

How does thermal gel polish change color?

Thermal gel polishes contain temperature-sensitive pigments that shift between two different hues based on the temperature of the nail. When nails are warm (body temperature), the polish shows its lighter shade. When nails are cool — from cold water, air conditioning, or cold weather — it shifts to the darker shade.

What are the three GLOSS Thermal shades?

GLOSS Thermal Collection includes Alter Red (shifts between crimson and terracotta), Alter Grape (shifts between deep violet and dusty lavender), and Alter Pink (shifts between rich berry and sheer blush).

Does the color shift happen gradually or instantly?

The color shift is gradual and continuous — the polish moves smoothly between its two tones as the temperature changes. In most settings, the shift happens over 10–30 seconds as the nail warms or cools.

Does the thermal effect wear off over time?

No. The thermal pigment is stable throughout the full wear period (3–4 weeks). The color-shifting effect works as well on day 25 as it does on day one.

Can I use a top coat over thermal gel polish?

Yes, and you should. GLOSS Top Coat Non Wipe seals the thermal gel polish, extends wear, and adds shine without blocking the color-shift effect. Apply and cure as with any standard gel top coat.

What is the cure time for thermal gel polish?

Cure each coat for 60 seconds under a 48W LED lamp. Two coats typically give the strongest color shift. Apply over GLOSS Rubber Base for best adhesion.
