Throwback Thursday Sinful Colors Zeus

* Purchased by me *

Hello! It's been quite a bit since I've posted any Sinful Colors.  Zeus is an oldie but is just beautiful, and too pretty of a color not to share with you.  Zeus was one of my first Sinful Colors and if I had known then what I know now, I would own so many others from these older collections.
Shown is 2 coats of Zeus in the sun and KBShimmer Clearly on Top.

I'm hoping Sinful Colors will eventually realize they need to bring back some of these older collections like Castaway (Zeus was part of that) and Adventure Island.

Since Zeus is not currently available, I was trying to think of something else that would fill the void.  My thought is that you can get a similar shade by using SinfulColors Lavender  or Zoya Caitlin, then topping with Revlon Matte Pearl Glaze (has a pink shimmer), and finally using a shiny topcoat.  I haven't tried it yet, so if you have those I'd love to know what you think!  

Fingers crossed we'll see some of the older shades repromoted by Sinful Colors again!

Pahlish Imprinted Upon Your Stars

*nothing to disclose*

Hello sweet friends!  If this blog has taught us anything (it hasn't), we know the never-ending love I hold for Pahlish.  I was sure I had posted this one, but sadly it seems I haven't.  I'm late to the punch because this was a group custom (the first) for Pahlish Lovers that's not available anymore.
The good news?  There are more customs for the above Facebook group, so I suggest joining and you'll get to see more beauties like Imprinted Upon Your Stars:

If you asked me about holos a few years ago, I would have said I can take them or leave for a good flakie polish.  But if you combine a periwinkle with such a delicate, ethereal holo and pink shimmer, I'll buy all of them!  All of them!  So lovely!

This is 2 coats of Imprinted Upon Your Stars.  I don't have much else to say, but it's a 10 out of 10 in my opinion for the formula (effortless), the scattered holo and the color!  I promise other Pahlish creations will not disappoint either!

Pahlish restocks and releases every Sunday and there are is a new collection of gorgeous new pastel shimmers available right now.  To enable make it easy for you, you can check out Pahlish here.  Be sure to join the Facebook group I mentioned above too!  

Thanks so much for stopping by! :)

KBShimmer Spring 2016: Prints Charming

*PR Sample

Just a quick post today to show off another Spring polish from KBShimmer! KBShimmer is known for their amazing crelly combos and Prints Charming does not disappoint! This white crelly has pops of colors in fuchsia, turquoise, and sapphire. I used three coats for full opacity and depth. First I topped it with Rica Glossy Glam for a high shine finish. 

 Then I had a genius idea to use NYC Matte Me Crazy. I have to say I love this one matte! It was so Spring-y and perfect!

 Prints Charming is Rarity approved. I noticed as I was cleaning up some toys how much this one encompassed her colors so I had to post for a quick photo.

 You can purchase Prints Charming on KBShimmer's website. You should also follow them on Facebook so you'll know about their future releases and contests! Additional places you can follow KBShimmer Bath and Body are:

Is it finally Spring where you are? We've had some crazy weather where I am, so I've been hot and cold about Spring colors and pastels. I think we are in the clear now though so I'm excited to put aside my dark colors and wear some bright and happy ones.

KBShimmer Spring 2016 Purr-fectly Paw-some and Pools Paradise

*Polishes provided for an honest review*

Hello sweet friends! I'm still munching on leftover Easter candy and happy I found some Reese's eggs on clearance. I'm also back with two KBShimmer Spring polishes to show you, Purr-fectly Paw-some and Pools Paradise.  Let's start with my favorite of the two, Purr-fectly Pawsome....

Above is how Purr-fectly Paw-some looks indoors and in most light.  I love the subtle linear holo and I'm all things periwinkle right now.
*Interesting side note, this was a shade lighter before I applied topcoat. I used KBShimmer Clearly On Top and it definitely darkened the polish.  I LOVE how it looks though, so I was not sad about it!  Then I went outside......

WOW! The holo on this one is a stunner, you will not be disappointed in this polish if you love holos.  This is part of the Spring 2016 collection and also considered one of KBShimmer's Ultra Flair Linear holos. I think you can see why. :-)
All photos are just 2 coats of Purr-fectly Paw-some and topcoat.

The next next polish is another of KBShimmer's perfect crellies.  Pools Paradise is a pretty slightly green leaning aqua with tiny matte pink, periwinkle and aqua glitters. Very pretty and formula was great as always!  I used 3 thin coats of Pools Paradise and Clearly on Top.

There are so many other polishes from the Spring collection that I love, so I will be picking up a bunch.  My other picks include Hello Dahlia, Prints Charming, and I Wet My Plants.  You can check out the entire KBShimmer Spring and Mega Flame collection (14 total)  at www.kbshimmer.com
