 Press Sample More fruit nail art, because I have problems, LOL. I was inspired by this adorable art I saw on Pinterest . I just love the neutral base with the neons against it. Plus, grapefruit art? SO CUTE! I took a short break from posting because I was behind on Instagram and I hate letting posts pile up. But here we are! I love love love pulling out old polishes. Sometimes I think, get rid of all but 50 nail polishes. Then I do a nail art where there's a particular orange and one orange is slightly too dark and one too light and then I am like, yes, I DO need 50 orange polishes, leave me alone. HAHA.   I know grapefruit does not exactly look like this, but I do love the color combo I saw on Pinterest, so I wanted to utilize the same style! That pop of pink is super cute! Here are the colors I used. Again, I went through like 12 different oranges and yellows to pick this color combo. I loved pulling out these oldies!

 Press Sample  We just seem to have back-to-back heatwaves?! 😈😭😲 There will be like 3 nice days and then 10 of misery and humidity. So I am sticking with some summery nail art. I loved my Popsicle nail art from Fourth of July, that I wanted to do it again! Well, I googled Popsicle nail art and saw some cute things, and this look was inspired by it! I saw this print on Pinterest, with no credit, and loved it. If you know the origin of the image, let me know and I will update my post! The base in the image was a darker yellow, so I lightened it up with a pale yellow. Then I added sparkle with a thin coat of holo. Super cute! The image had more of a rainbow popsicle and I went with a more summer pastel neon look. Here are the colors: Base: 3 coats of Jessica Yellow Meringue     Blues: KBShimmer Harbor A Crush and Double Pig Dare You  Greens: KBShimmer For Sail By Owner and Race Against Slime  Pinks: KBShimmer Pink or Swim and How Low Can You Flamingo...

Press Sample Hello everyone, as today we are continuing with the Marine Magic theme and to look at what KBShimmer is offering. If you saw last week, I swatched and shared the Just Add Water collection which is a collection of shifty shimmers. The special polish for PPU is the same shifty shimmer! Let’s take a look!        KBShimmer Restoration Drops Nail Polish Thinner :  $7, No Cap. " Over time, nail polish can get thick and stringy. This is due to the evaporation of Butyl Acetate and Ethyl Acetate, two of the main ingredients in all nail polishes that help the polish to dry on your nails. To restore thick polish, use our KBShimmer polish thinner, Restoration Drops. For slightly thickened polish, start with 2-3 drops, shake, then check the consistency. Repeat until you are happy with the result. For dried out or severely thickened polish, we suggest that you fill the bottle with thinner to the fill line, let it sit overnight, and then shake in the mor...

  Press Sample Hello, hello! While it may feel like summer to you, August is the month when school starts, so I'm in about to start school mode. August's Polish Pickup is Marine Magic. So like...fish? I guess! I like marine life and looking at the cool colors of fish. Otherwise...no idea. So let's take a looksy.   "Mr SC took the reigns for this month because I had no idea what to do with Marine Magic. He loves Adult Swim and SeaLab 2021 as much as he loves a quirky inspo, so our shade is inspired by some weird creatures featured in that cartoon. Bizarro! is a bright, juicy orange filled with every kind of holographic pigment we had in the STELLA CHROMA lab. A little linear, a little scattered, and some bigger holo flakies for good measure. $13 for 15 mL. No cap." Stella Chroma Bizzaro! : 2 coats. Talk about a juicy orange nail polish. Seriously this is like sparkly orange juice on my nails. I love, love, love it. It’s just perfect for the summer yet will be per...

Press Sample Summertime is when the sun is plentiful. It’s the best time for me to get swatches by sunlight. But also when it’s beautiful out, I usually have other plans. Well the other weekend, the weather called for rain and clouds. I made no plans.

And boy am I glad because these polishes look ultra gorgeous in the sunlight.   The Just Add Water nail polish collection by KBShimmer features eight shimmery shades perfect for invoking the spirit of summer.
