The temps are dropping, spirits are bright, cookies are baking, and folks are getting into the holiday spirit. While this year isn't the ideal holiday experience with so many of us away from our families, lots of people out of work (my boyfriend included after 22 years at the same company), and stresses higher than usual, I feel like this is the year to really show our resilience and make these holidays great, no matter what the situation is. Tomorrow will always be brighter day, and until then, there's always nail polish. <3 Speaking of–today I have the KBShimmer Love at Frost Sight collection to share with you!
Pale peachy golden champagne with shifts of pink, gold, and copper
Can we talk about how freaking gorgeous this is? It's my favorite shade of the entire collection, and it's not hard to see why! With its glory warm sheen, it's sure to light your menorah!
Opacity scale (1-5): 2
Finish: Shimmer, 2-3 coats to be opaque
Icy silver metallic magnetic
This shade pulls double duty- you can wear it layered over your favorite darker polish and create cool designs with your magnet, or, like me, do 2-3 coats over your natural nail to create an icy, frosted look to your nail! Fun tip- try starburst shaped magnets for a unique shining star effect!
Opacity scale (1-5): 1.5
Finish: Magnetic, 3 coats to be opaque without magnet
Finish: Magnetic, 3 coats to be opaque without magnet
Deep denim blue creme
The only creme in the collection, this one reminds me of dark, starry nights with that crisp chill in the air! It's definitely a perfect base color for shades like Love at Frost Sight and Sol Amazing!
Opacity scale (1-5): 3
Finish: Creme, 2 coats to be opaque
Finish: Creme, 2 coats to be opaque
Perfect wine linear holo
Ummmm, pour me a glass of my favorite Cabernet, I'll be right back. Time to put on my comfy pants, because I'm nestling myself under the heated blanket next to two snugging pups, and streaming Hallmark movies all night. Don't judge, we all have our vices. (I'm about 30 movies into the season lol) This is probably the truest wine colored holo I've seen, and I love it!
Opacity scale (1-5): 3.5
Finish: Holographic, 1-2 coats to be opaque
Black cherry base with color shifting flakes - thermal, warm state is a bright raspberry
This one totally reminds me of blackberry jam, which I LOVE to spread on sourdough bread (like everyone has been making during the last 8 months or so lol) it's color-shifting flakes shift from pink, to copper to blue. This beauty is a thermal, which, I'll admit I didn't realize until I started to write this. In between tonight and the day I swatched these polishes, I've broken two nails (OF COURSE!), so I had to show off the temperature shift for you on a single nail. I hope you'll all forgive me.
Opacity scale (1-5): 3
Finish: Thermal/Flakie, 2 coats to be opaque
Warm Santa red with color shifting flakes and scattered micro holo
A cheerful red with plenty of color-shifting flakes ranging from gold to red to orange. Look closely and you'll see a sprinkling of good cheer in the form of micro holo flakes! As someone who is knitting and crocheting like a crazy person these days, I can totally relate to the spirit of this shade!
Opacity scale (1-5): 2.5
Finish: Flakie, 2 coats to be opaque
Clear base with color-shifting flakes of rust, gold & green (I even spotted a few sparks of blue!)
Sunshine in a bottle! This polish is so densely packed with flakes, you're not going to have to do too much work to get a lovely shifting sheen on your nails! Layer it over shades like Stream On, Stream Away or wear it alone, either way, it's sure to be a ray of sunshine!
Opacity scale (1-5): 2
Finish: Flakie, 2+ coats to be opaque
Champagne & pink holo glitter bomb
Tis the season to glitter allll the things! It's the season of sparkle, and this one won't let you down. It's the bubbles in your Champagne glasses, the sparkle on your tree, the shimmering flame of your menorah. It's one that will look good year round, but is really a gift this time of year!
Opacity scale (1-5): 2
Finish: Glitter, 2+ coats to be opaque
Emerald green with color-shifting flakes and subtle micro holo
With it's deep evergreen hue and mixture of flakes and holo, it's like a brightly decorated Christmas tree with all your favorite ornaments and twinkling lights on every bough.
Opacity scale (1-5): 2.5
Finish: Flakie, 2 coats to be opaque
White crelly with red and green glitter
The instant I saw this polish, my mouth started watering, and I glanced to my baking cupboard with desire. I can almost taste the creamy frosting and feel the crunchy nonpareils (the superior sprinkle of ALLLLL the sprinkles...fight me) between my teeth. This one totally hits the mark for me–it totally evokes memories of holidays spent in the kitchen baking treats for family and friends.
Opacity scale (1-5): 2.5
Finish: Crelly/Glitter, 2 coats to be opaque
Blackened Burgundy with shifts to gold, green, and rust.
Holy wowza! Such a super gorgeous (and stealthy) polish that needs to be in your collection! I love the way that when the light hits is perfectly your nails are set ablaze in color!
Opacity scale (1-5): 3
Finish: Multichrome, 2 coats to be opaque
Silvery aqua with shifts to cerulean and purple
Imagine this–you're on a simmering sea, and the sun has just dropped below the horizon, and the purple sky is starting to show its beauty. That is THIS polish! It's a far more shy/subtle shift than ones like Obsidian, but it's oh so gorgeous!
Opacity scale (1-5): 3
Finish: Multichrome, 2 coats to be opaque
Obsidian + holo shimmer!
Everything to love from Obsidian, but with the addition of HOLO. Ummmmm HELLO! Super gorgeous- it's like Obsidian is on fire with embers of holo.
Opacity scale (1-5): 3
Finish: Multichrome, 2 coats to be opaque
Bright royal blue shifting to turquoise, purple, and even a hint of pink
Umm, if I had a dragon, it would be this color. I think it's pretty obvious why, with that absolutely stunning shift. If that dragon had a brother though, it'd be Obsidian, because duh. Just call me Khaleesiiiiiii.
Opacity scale (1-5): 3
Finish: Multichrome, 2 coats to be opaque

There are so many beautiful polishes in this collection, but there are some definite standouts. For me, those standout polishes are Shamash Hit, Sip Back and Relax, Baking Spirits Bright, and Obsidian! Tell me in the comments what your favorite shades from this collection are!
