KBShimmer Seems Fishy – PPU & IPU April 2020

Hello friends! I hope that you’re doing as well as can be expected in our new reality. I am doing my best to stay home and only go out once a week to get necessities, but it’s definitely hard. I have hope that if we all do our part, we can get through this. Since April is right around the corner, that means that Polish and Indie Pickup are going to be opening up shop this Friday. Today I’m going to be sharing with you my swatches of KBShimmer Seems Fishy which is completely stunning. I have taken pictures in different angles and lighting to show you just how shifty it is. Let’s take a look at my swatches below. Continue reading “KBShimmer Seems Fishy – PPU & IPU April 2020”

KBShimmer Sól What? – PPU & IPU March 2020

KBShimmer Sól What? – PPU & IPU March 2020

I know that February is a short month, but I’m still shocked that March is right around the corner. I recently got the news that my place will be ready by May 1st which means that I only have to stay at my temporary place for 2 more months. You have no idea how happy this makes me because I’ve felt displaced since December. It has definitely been rough, but I feel like I am now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel so I just have to wait it out for 2 more months.  So that’s great new for me that has definitely put me in a much better mood–which brings me to other things that put me in good mood: pretty polish! Today I am sharing with you my swatches of KBShimmer Sól What? and their pomegranate sugar scrub. Let’s take a look at my swatches below.

KBShimmer Let It Beetle – PPU & IPU February 2020

KBShimmer Let It Beetle – PPU & IPU February 2020

You’d think that due to the holiday today, I’d be enjoying having a day off to relax; alas, I came down with a nasty cold and have just been hiding out in my den of germs for the last 5 days. I’ve been living off a combination of Nyquil, Dayquil and Theraflu which pretty much knocks me out for hours at a time. I’m not complaining since I 100% need the rest. I’m glad that I got right on swatching these items as soon as I got them because I wouldn’t be getting it done now with the way I’m feeling. For today’s post, I have KBShimmer Let It Beetle and a new Freesia sugar scrub which will be available for PPU and IPU in February. Let’s take a look at my swatches below.

KBShimmer Un-brrr-lievable – PPU & IPU December 2019

KBShimmer Un-brrr-lievable – PPU & IPU December 2019

Hi all and Happy December! I hope that you all had a lovely Thanksgiving and that you survived Black Friday/Cyber Monday relatively unscathed. I had one helluva a weekend! I finally moved out of the place I had called home for eons and parted ways with my baby brother (who is 29!). He has been living with me pretty much since he was 18 so I can imagine that it will be a huge adjustment for him. On my end, as much as I love him, I was ready to push him (violently) out of the nest. My current living situation is complicated to say the least and it will be around 4-6 months before I can move in to my new permanent place. Trust me, it’s more messy than you can even begin to imagine. To top it all off, I got sick in the middle of all of this and now I’m a snot-filled mess with a cough that doesn’t let me sleep. As always, the timing is impeccably putrid. Since I don’t have much good news today, I’m just going to get to it and share my swatches of KBShimmer Un-brrr-lievable which is this month’s PPU offering. Let’s take a look!

Pepper Pot Polish Why So Grimm? – PPU November 2019

So Halloween is in a couple of days…do you have any Halloween plans? I am pretty much over Halloween and am not planning on dressing up or doing anything. Not too many kids come around my neighborhood for candy so I know that if I buy any, I will end up eating it all myself–so I won’t be buying any too much. What is your favorite candy? Not long ago I posted on Instagram regarding controversial candy such as Circus Peanuts, Candy Corn and Bit O’Honey because I wanted to know if you liked them or not. How do you feel about these three candies? Anyway, enough about candy! Today I have Pepper Pot Polish Why So Grimm? to share with you. Let’s take a look at my swatches below.

Hey there! How are things? I’m doing ok–just chugging along as I watch the year slip through my fingers. Work has been going well so I can’t complain about that. Isn’t it nice to be content with work? I’ve had so many bad jobs in the past that I am just so happy to work at a place that doesn’t make me want to cry. Since we’re nearing November, you know that Polish Pickup is just around the corner. Today I have KBShimmer The Nothing as well as a new yummy sugar scrub to share with you so let’s take a look!

KBShimmer Mirror Mirror In The Stall – PPU August 2019

The weather is finally starting to heat up here in Southern California which means that I had to get sick. I came down with a cough and cold so I’m feeling extra miserable since it’s so hot outside. I’ve definitely slowed down a lot when it comes to painting my nails because of this and because of how busy I have been lately. Today I’m sharing with you KBShimmer Mirror Mirror In The Stall which will be available soon through Polish Pickup. Let’s take a look at my swatches below.

Twisting Nether Lacquer Lost Ions – PPU June 2019

Twisting Nether Lacquer Lost Ions – PPU June 2019

I feel like I’ve been sleeping okay lately. I never knew that the whole waking up at 3 am every night thinf is common, did you? I googled it because I feel that I always wake up around 3:00-3:30 am which always leaves me feeling tired. I wonder if I have some sort of sleep disorder? I think it’s time to check in with my doctor! Anyway, today I have another polish that will be available for June Polish Pickup. Twisting Nether Lacquer Lost Ions is a smoky black polish full of iridescent flakes. Let’s take a look at my swatches below. Continue reading “Twisting Nether Lacquer Lost Ions – PPU June 2019”

KBShimmer What Does This Mean? – PPU & IPU June 2019

KBShimmer What Does This Mean? – PPU & IPU June 2019

I know that I talk a lot about the weather because it directly affects my mood, but this time I’m talking about the weather since it’s the theme for June’s Polish/Indie Pickup! I’ve pretty much caught up on my swatching obligations so I’m enjoying just wearing pretty polish for more than a day or two. I actually rounded off my nails so I’ll be sporting that shape for a while. As much as I like my squoval nails, I feel that they are more prone to breaking which will not work well for me during the move. Today I am going to share with you swatches of KBShimmer What Does This Mean? as well as a new scrub for IPU. Let’s take a look at my swatches below.
