KBShimmer Love at Frost Sight Swatches & Review

Press Sample 

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!

Press Sample

Fall is here! FINALLY! Sure, it's definitely not fall yet here in Las Vegas, but I hear the rest of the country is getting to enjoy the loveliness of my favorite season! Apple cider, cinnamon, chai lattes, pumpkins, I freaking love it all (except PSLs from Starbucks, I just don't get the hype over those...) Today I have swatches of the fall collection from Zoya nail polish for you. Read on for more info!

KBShimmer Winter 2018 Collection Swatches and Review

Press Sample

I've never been one of those people that absolutely love Christmas... I mean, I enjoy it; the lights, the cheer, egg nog... but really, I'm more of a Thanksgiving girl at heart. That said, I DO have an embarrassing love of terrible Christmas movies...I've already watched most of them that are currently available on Netflix, and there are no current pans to stop anytime soon. They're like bacon or chocolate for the heart, they're sometimes terrible for you, but always make you feel good. Some favorites? A Christmas Prince, The Spirit of Christmas, really anything with Christmas in the title. What are your favorites? Tell me in the comments- I always need to add to the watchlist!

Why am I rambling about Christmas movies? Why, to tell you about the gorgeous KBShimmer Christmas 2018 collection, that's why! Read on to see the beautiful shades that Christy came up with this year - they're a mix of shimmer polishes, magnetic polishes, crellies with flakes, flakies, even holos. :) Merry Christmas to us from KBShimmer!

Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend - 31 Day Challenge - Day 8

Nothing to Disclose

When Marilyn Monroe sang 'Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend', I don't think these are quite the diamonds that she had in mind...but I am in LOVE with them! I can't take credit for the idea- Andrea of Chickettes had something similar on her sample nail wheel at Cosmoprof, but in a regular gel, and I decided that it would look super rad AND fit today's 31 Day Nail Art Challenge if I added a touch of chrome. :D Hit the jump for more photos and to see what I used!

For Your Thoughts.

Hey everyone! Guess whose birthday it is today? I'll give a hint... he'd be 201 years old today. He sported a lovely beard. He was assassinated by John Wilkes Booth. ;) Ok, if you haven't figured it out yet, its Abe Lincoln!! :-P In honor of our 16th President's birthday, I decided to do penny nails, since he's on both sides!! :-P It didn't turn out as well as I'd hoped, because I quickly discovered it is very hard to paint the detail of a penny on a fingernail with a nail art brush. :-P it'd have to be like a single bristled art brush! lol



I used Milani Sassy Brassy, which to me looks more like copper, as a base, with a mixture of Zoya Raven, Zoya Angelina and Nubar Milk Chocolate Creme for the linework, and Zoya Raven for the black background, topped with Essie Matte About You. Penny art was topped off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat to really make 'em shine. ;)

Now, how about your 2¢?
