A Special Press Release - KBShimmer Winter 2013 Collections

Hey out there!

I don't typically post press releases, but this one is a special one!

Some of you might remember my collaboration polish with KBShimmer from a couple of months ago. It's called Green Hex & Glam and you can see swatches of it here. Well, with this new 22 piece Winter release, 11 of them are blogger collaborations and mine is one of them! So for everyone that wished they could get their hands on a bottle of Green Hex & Glam, you'll be able to come November 1st!

Check out the full press release below including photos and descriptions of all 22 new polishes!

KBSHIMMER ANNOUNCES RELEASE OF TWENTY-TWO NEW POLISHES
KBShimmer Winter Polish Line Set For Release November 1st, 2013

KBShimmer is excited to announce the addition of 22 new colors to their 3-Free glitter polish line. Owner Christy Rose says “This winter, we are set to release the largest amount of new polishes to date. We were honored to work with a great group of bloggers to create a stunning set of winter and holiday inspired polishes. These eleven polishes will release alongside additional polishes designed by KBShimmer to capture the joy, color and wonder that surrounds us all.”

The blogger collection includes three glitter top coats, four sparkling jellies, two glitter creally polishes, one matte, and one shimmering cream. “We are launching eleven unique polishes that capture the feelings of winter and the winter holidays. Each blogger had a different idea, and it was so fun working with them to create a polish that told their story.” says Rose.

Returning this year a charity polish. “Kringle All The Way is this year’s charity polish. $4 from each bottle will be used to purchase toys for Toys For Tots. Last year we raised over $800 and we hope to top that this year!” says Rose. “In addition to several holiday and winter themed polishes, we are also excited to release our first set of multi-chrome and linear holographic polishes. We think that this release is our most exciting to date!” All 22 polishes are set for release Friday, November 1st at KBShimmer.com and will retail for $8.75 for a 15 ml bottle.

Pick My Wedding Nails! Choice #3 - Subtle Floral

Good morning!

Today I have another possible wedding mani to share with you! If anyone missed the info in the first post, I'll give you a quick recap: I'm getting married on November 15th (omg it's so soon!) and I want you guys to help me choose my bridal manicure. I'll be posting a few designs during the month (the first and second choices have already been posted here and here respectively) and then when I've posted them all, I'll ask you all to pick your favourite.

Today's design again features stamping. I don't do a lot of stamping, but I think that there's a lot of really nice, delicate and feminine options available for bridal nails with stamping. Plus, stamping offers a consistency that let's face it, even the best nail artists can't always emulate.


Lots more photos after the jump!

Bright & Colourful Halloween Mani - Bundle Monster Nail Art Contest Inspired

Before I get to today's post, I must point out that tomorrow is my 26th birthday! I might not get a chance to post, but birthday wishes will be well received, hehe. :D

Anyways, I've been really inspired to play around with stamping lately, mostly because this year I'm one of the judges for ! I've participated in one of Bundle Monster's Nail Art Contests before (and won!), so it was really cool to be offered the opportunity to participate this year in a whole different way.

So, to (hopefully) help inspire some of you to enter this awesome contest, I've created a fun Halloween manicure below using some of the Bundle Monster products I own.


See more photos and get a rundown of all the products used after the jump.

piCture pOlish - Siren Song by Rebecca Likes Nails

Hey guys!

I have a super special post today! I'm showing you one of the newest piCture pOlish Collaboration Shades and this one is especially special because it was created in collaboration with my good friend Rebecca from Rebecca Likes Nails!

Some of you might not know this, but Rebecca and I live in the same city so we actually get to hang out and she's even coming to my wedding! So she dropped over last night with a bottle of her collaboration polish so that I could post about it today. I was actually going to purchase a bottle myself, but this works out better because I don't have to impatiently wait to it to arrive in the mail, haha.


Check out all 12 shades from this collection below!
