KBShimmer After Midnight (R)

Nothing To Disclose

This is the last reflective glitter from KBShimmer that I own. This is a pure black polish with silver reflective glitter called After Midnight. Now, when I originally put this on, I was mad that it had gotten thick too and I originally put it in my sale pile but after I was able to restore my others, I filled it with restoration drops and let it do its thing.

KBShimmer Grayscale

Nothing To Disclose

I have a problem with wanting every single black and white glitter polish but KBShimmer broke the mold by adding gray (grey?) glitter in Grayscale. I decided to layer this over my cuccio Encore because red + white + black is magical.

KBShimmer Fleece Navidad

Nothing To Disclose

I was looking at my KBShimmer drawer and I completely forgot I had this polish in my drawer! This is Fleece Navidad, and it's a soft, silvery grey with holographic sparkle and blue micro flakes. This was from the Winter 2015 collection.

KBShimmer All That Glimmers (R)

Nothing To Disclose

So when I pulled out KBShimmer All That Glimmers (R) a pink reflective glitter, it was rock hard. Now, that can happen especially when you don't seal your bottle entirely. I have the KBShimmer Restoration Drops Polish Thinner and I put a ton of it in the bottle and let it sit overnight. I ended up doing that three more times and today, it was perfectly back to it's original state.

KBShimmer Aurora

Nothing To Disclose

Back in 2014, flakies had a HOLD on the polish world. I bought from several brands because it was just a magpie of "I want everything." Today I have KBShimmer Aurora, a green to orange flakie.

KBShimmer 352


I have more KBShimmers to go through and today I have 352, which I believe I got as part of a grab bag. This is a deep purple polish with tons of holographic glitter.

KBShimmer Purple Reign


I'm still cleaning out my KBShimmer drawer and today I have Purple Reign, which was the PolishCon Minneapolis 2018 VIP Bag exclusive. I'm really sad that I didn't get to attend but was happy to be able to buy a VIP bag on their website after the event. This is a beautiful purple holographic with pink shimmer.

KBShimmer Novel Idea (R)

Nothing To Disclose

I liked this polish so much, I bought it twice. This is KBShimmer Novel Idea (R) and it's a grape purple multi-shimmer with reflective glitter. There's SO many colors to this polish.

KBShimmer Stop and Smell the Rose

Nothing To Disclose

Another KBShimmer today! This is Stop and Smell the Rose and this was originally a beautiful rose gold holographic shade. Unfortunately, mine has faded.

KBShimmer Alcohol You Later

Nothing To Disclose

I'm working on some more KBShimmer polishes from my Helmer drawers and today I have KBShimmer Alcohol You Later, a PolishCon 2016 limited edition polish. This is a purple holographic polish with a multi-chrome red and copper shifts.

KBShimmer Up and Cunning

Press Sample

I have another KBShimmer Fall 2014 polish today! This is Up and Cunning, a deep linear holographic teal. There was definitely a point in my polish life where I had to have ALL THE HOLOS. KBShimmer always had some great formulas.

KBShimmer Tapped Out (R)

Nothing To Disclose

When KBShimmer launched her line of reflective glitter polishes in 2021, I immediately bought four, including today's polish, Tapped Out. This is a gorgeous dark-wash denim blue polish with glowy pink shimmer, and you can sometimes see green or gold. Add in some silver reflect pigment, and it's just amazing.

KBShimmer Flake Me Home Tonight

Press Sample

Well, today I have another faded polish, sadly. This is KBShimmer Flake Me Home Tonight, originally a mint-green metallic with silver flakes and holographic microglitter. This polish is 10 years ago and again, metallics just don't hold up like a creme or even a holo.

KBShimmer Pine-ing For Yule

Nothing To Disclose

I was in love with this polish when it first came out in Winter 2014. This is KBShimmer Pine-ing For Yule, a clear-based glitter with holographic micro glitter, green triangles, and red stars. I didn't realize it at the time, but this was a Toys for Tots charity polish! If you follow me on Instagram, you may know that I'm now a Toys for Tots coordinator, which makes me very excited.

KBShimmer Spot Sign


I was so excited when today's KBShimmer Spot Sign first came out - a black and holographic glitter in a clear base with these super unique leopard spot U-shaped glitter. I decided to layer this one over my previous KBShimmer manicure.

KBShimmer Hugs and Wishes


I'm continuing with more KBShimmer today and this is from the Fall 2014 collection. This is Hugs and Wishes, a dusty lavender creme. I do feel that my bottle has faded slightly since its original release.

KBShimmer Bean There, Done That

Nothing To Disclose

I have another Chicago PolishCon 2017 limited edition polishes from KBShimmer today. This is Bean There, Done That, inspired by the chrome silver sculpture, which reflects the sky and surroundings in Millennium Park (most commonly known as The Bean). This polish also has a beautiful color shift shimmer from blue to pink (and I really saw it as more purple).

KBShimmer Scribble Me This

Nothing To Disclose

Glitter toppers - love them, hate them, or just in between, this is a glitter bomb for sure. This KBShimmer from Summer 2014, called Scribble Me This, is packed with black, white, and neon glitters. I decided to layer one coat over yesterday's manicure.

KBShimmer Shore Thing


Today's KBShimmer polish is from the 6th Anniversary Trio back in 2014 and this is Shore Thing, an aqua creme. The other two polishes in this trio were Hexy Bikini and Beach Please.

KBShimmer Let's Slang

Nothing To Disclose

Today's KBShimmer polish had me in a chokehold when I first saw it. This was a PolishCon Chicago 2016 exclusive polish called Let's Slang. It's a deep midnight blue/purple packed with color-shifting pigments. I cannot believe I haven't worn this formally.
