KB Shimmer Don't Teal Anyone

Hello Lovelies! I'm here with another KB Shimmer Polish called Don't Teal Anyone. The polish is described as "a deep teal base with gold, teal, blue, navy and fuchsia hexes in several sizes, and micro fuchsia bars". 

This polish is so pretty! It's beautiful inside (the bottle) and out. =)
I could (ahem~and should) have EASILY stopped with two coats, but I have a serious glitter addiction...so I went with three. I should have only used two because it caused my mani to turn out looking waaaaay too thick for my liking.  
Don't Teal Anyone dried very quickly after each of the coats I applied.
I used two coats of Seche Vite to smooth it out.
 One surprise to Don't Teal Anyone is that it's actually a darker teal than it photographs.

You can find Christy on FB and her homepage. KB Shimmer products can also be purchased on etsy. Christy has other products as well that I have heard rave reviews about.
 
Have a great day and as always,
Happy Lacquering! =)

KB Shimmer Oh Splat!

Hello Lovelies! Today I have another polish from KB Shimmer to share with you called Oh Splat! I was enamored with this particular polish because, speaking as an art teacher, rainbow splats are beautiful. =)

This polish was no exception. Oh Splat! made perfect little multi-colored and splattered rainbows on my tiny little canvases.
 This is three coats of Oh Splat! covered with two coats of Seche Vite top coat.
Oh Splat! was perfect in consistency, not too thick or thin, and it was very easy to layer. I had fun watching the rainbows pop over each other with every coat!
 I like the "splatterish" look and feel of this polish and I will definitely wear it again.

Have a great day and as always,

KB Shimmer Band Geek

Hello Lovelies! Today I am so happy to share one of many new polishes I picked up from Christy at KB Shimmer. This is the beautiful Band Geek. I was drawn to this color because I am a huge fan of black polish and I was fascinated by the metallic flecks of gold. Plus, I don't have any other polish quite like Band Geek, so I was pretty stoked to try it out.
 
Christy describes this polish as a "Black jelly base to represent the oboe and clarinet, several sizes of sliver, copper, and gold to capture the flutes, horns, drums, and the rest of the band." And I am happy to say that Band Geek was everything I had hoped it would be...and more.
 
As a glitter lover, Band Geek was an absolute DREAM.
I could have easily stopped with two coats, but I loooove my glitter nice and opaque, so I went with three coats.
The glitter was a touch on the thicker side, but I personally found it very easy to work with.
I used two coats of Seche Vite to smooth it out. Pure Gorgeousness.
I am so happy with KB Shimmer Band Geek!
