KBShimmer Falloween 2018 Collection

Press Sample of the KBShimmerFalloween 2018 Collection I think it’s safe to say that I got a lot accomplished this weekend. I’m about 99% caught up on posts – and it feels pretty darn good. Next up tonight we have the KBShimmer Falloween 2018 Collection! This is a 10 piece collection and we have a little of everything. Glitter crelly? Check. Creme? Check. Multichromes? Check. It’s all here and then some. The KBShimmer Falloween 2018 Collection combines 2 things I love – Fall and Halloween. And you already know the punny names are gonna be good. These will be available starting tomorrow (look I’m on time again!!) So lets jump right in. KBShimmer | Best Witches Best Witches is a vibrant purple jelly base packed with silver holographic glitters. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

KBShimmer Throwback Collection

Press Sample of KBShimmer Throwback Collection I have a fun collection to share tonight! I’m a little behind (nothing new here!) so you’ve already seen these around the nail world. It’s the KBShimmer Throwback Collection! This is a pretty incredible collection to me. Some of these polishes were in my very first blogger package I ever received from KBShimmer. About half of these have been featured on my blog before, while the other half I purchased, but they didn’t make it onto the blog. But I do own the original releases of them all. KBShimmer is re-releasing these throwback shades as part of their 10th Anniversary celebration. These 8 shades all released in 2012 or 2013 and are considered “fan favorites” One thing I want to mention is that, for those newer to indies – when I started in the indie community, the majority of indie polishes involved glitter. Lots…

KBShimmer Hard To Empress

Press Sample of KBShimmer Hard To Empress I feel like things are just always crazy around here. Once tax season was over, my work went into full blown moving mode. Our office is moving in 3 weeks and we’re going paperless (eep) so we’ve been scanning like crazy while packing up the office. At home we’re adjusting to the new Summer schedule with Jacob. In previous years he would generally hang out at his dad’s house while I was at work (his dad’s girlfriend was home) but they moved across the US back in September. So this Summer Jacob has been staying home with either myself or Nick, or he’s been a busy bee and has plans with friends to go out. I’ve been driving around in my new car and I am still so happy with it. I’m still getting used to all the keyless wizardry that goes along…

Press Sample of KBShimmer Wanderlust Collection KBShimmer has a new collection dropping on June 15th (I can tell you now… that’s a busy weekend) and it’s the Wanderlust Collection! The KBShimmer Wanderlust collection is an 8 piece collection inspired by a west coast trip to Ventura, California!This seaside location was full of lush nature, calming beaches, and good times with friends, making this beach retreat the perfect place to envision shades of blue, green, pink and purple. Let’s take a look! Wander-ful World Wander-ful World is an electric magenta pink linear holographic. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos. Hakuna Moscato Hakuna Moscato is a sheer blushing rose gold base with rose gold micro flakes and holographic micro glitters. I used 3 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos, but it can also be used as a topper. Meet Me At The Barre…

KBShimmer Launch Party Collection

Press Sample I know, I know – this launch already happened, but after all the hectic stuff going on – I am finally getting my post up! Today I have the KBShimmer Launch Party Collection to share! On March 15th KBShimmer debuted an all new look! After 10 years in business, they decided it was time to revamp their look with matte black boxes, holographic box print and a new brushed silver logo imprinted on their bottles. Their bath and body goodies have holo print on their labels now! To debut this new look – KBShimmer released the Launch Party Collection! This is a 9 piece space theme with 8 magnetic multichrome and duochrome polishes, as well as a galaxy holographic topper. Before we jump into this, I will say that I’m not the best at magnetics since I’m still getting the hang of them, so I didn’t get the clear,…
