As fall fades and pumpkins turn from porch decor to perfectly seasoned pies, we start looking forward to the first flurries of snow. The magical white flakes inspire cozy days, where bundling up and sipping hot cocoa are the only plans.
Snowflakes replace leaves, cinnamon fills the air, and we embrace the changing seasons. This winter, KBShimmer presents 12 perfectly seasoned nail polish shades to take you from fall to winter. Launching on Friday, November 22nd, 2024, this collection also features two sugar scrub scents and a lineup of classic cuticle oils, now available with seasonal scents and rollerball application.
Berry & Bright is a vibrant cherry red nail polish, perfect for the holiday season. Near metallic in finish, this crimson shade catches the light with hints of cardinal red and raspberry. Under certain lights, you might even see a hint of copper or gold. This subtly shifting shade will remain a favorite long after the holiday season ends.
Bundled Up nail polish pays tribute to those colorful winter outfits. A vibrant grape base sets off a vivid teal shimmer, which quickly flips to shades of royal blue, green, and indigo.
Crushing It is a green magnetic nail polish inspired by crushed velvet. A deep forest green base is complemented by a vibrant green magnetic pigment, shown in the velvet manicure look, done with a horseshoe magnet. It can also be worn in traditional magnetic styles or without the magnet for a bright green metallic effect.
Flocking Fabulous nail polish is a nod to flocked trees. A white crelly base provides a modern holiday palette of glitters, with a fun mix of fuchsia and icy blue hex glitters accenting the traditional red and green. Large fuchsia and green dot glitters mimic hanging ornaments, making this polish perfect for the Christmas season.
Get Your Knit Together nail polish is a tribute to the art of knitting. A deep indigo, blurple-leaning jelly base provides the perfect background for iridescent flakes. These iridescent flakes, shifting from fuchsia to purple and aqua to blue, share space with black flakes, creating a complex polish that pairs perfectly with your favorite sweater.
How Noble is a deep teal jelly nail polish filled with color-shifting flakes that showcase a range of blue, teal, green, and sapphire hues. Black flakes add depth to this polish.
In A Flurry is a silver prismatic nail polish topper. Holographic flakes catch the light, offering a glowy rainbow of colors. In low light, the silver color of the flakes shines through. One coat shown over KBShimmer Take Back Ctrl. Layer two coats for extra impact. The holographic flakes vary in size and are as unique as snowflakes, perfect for any manicure.
A classic shade from 2013, Kringle All The Way is a Christmas-inspired glitter nail polish topper that features a mix of metallic glitters in sizes from extra small to extra-large. Bright red, silver, green, and holographic circle glitters create a festive feel, while micro and small hex glitters add a touch of sparkle. Shown over KBShimmer Happy Camper. For best results with thick glitter-heavy formulas, I prefer to use a makeup sponge to dab them on. The sponge soaks up most of the clear, leaving the glitter stuck down well. Another option is to use a toothpick or dotting tool to manually place the larger glitters, or dab on and then use the brush to distribute. Afterward, I applied Smooth Moves and then Clearly On Top for a glass-like finish.
Perfectly Seasoned is a spice-inspired linear holo nail polish. Its warm-toned, light caramel tan base is perfectly complemented by a strong linear holo flame, while red undertones mimic a dash of cinnamon.
Present Tense is a bold purple nail polish with a warm magenta shimmer. The shade shifts from flirty fuchsia to grape and more, as a glowy shimmer moves through hues of pink and purple. In some lights, the purple takes on blue undertones, making this a captivating shade.
Skating By is a pale, icy blue nail polish loaded with glowing holo flakes and color-shifting shimmer. While the silvery flakes add sparkle, hints of soft peach and warm gold accent the blue base, giving it touches of mint and teal.
Watts Going On is a black reflective polish with a hidden surprise. Reflective glitters catch the light, revealing a rainbow of colors, reminiscent of colorful holiday light displays. In low light, the polish appears as a deep charcoal with a subtle twinkle. Under bright light or flash, this polish sparkles like a large light display. I used one coat of Smooth Moves followed by Clearly On Top for a glass-like finish.
Berry Sweet Hand & Body Sugar Scrub – Juicy strawberries, plump blueberries, and tart raspberries combine in this scrub for the perfect balance of sweet and tart. Notes of vanilla cream, musk, and bergamot round out the fragrance notes, offering complexity to this fruity scent. Swirls of red and pink add a berry-appealing look to the cream-colored base.Super sugary and sweet smelling, I love it!
Peppermint Cocoa Hand & Body Sugar Scrub – Smells like a delicious mint chocolate candy accented by rich vanilla and notes of dark cocoa, making this scrub the perfect treat for yourself or someone you love.
