KBShimmer: Mix It Up Collection

Get out your neon, pop in your favorite mixtape, and join KBShimmer as they head back in time to when big hair, roller rinks, and trips to the mall ruled. Hotter than your crimper, six bold cream nail polish shades and a glitter topper are here to take you back. These near neon shades will launch on May 1st and can be found at KBShimmer.com and other online retailers.

Mix It Up is the perfect electric pink nail polish. Slightly redder, this neon shade leans more watermelon than bubblegum, for a hot pink shade perfect for showing off in sandals. This blacklight reactive shade is loads of fun at a glow bowl!

Totally Outrageous is a neon red-orange polish that will take you back. The vibrant coral shade leans slightly orange, ideal for warm summer days.

Let’s Bounce is a vivid chartreuse nail polish. This daringly colored shade rides the line between neon yellow and electric lime for an exceptional neon perfect for warm weather.

Roll On By is a teal nail polish that would be right at home in any roller rink. This is the only one of the bunch where one thick coat was opaque. I wore two coats for photos.

Net Gains is a nod to colorful hair spray containers of the ‘80s and ‘90s. The energetic, violet-leaning purple nail polish dries slightly darker than it shows in the bottle.

To The Max is a cornflower blue nail polish reminiscent of retro eyeshadows.

Scratch That is a nod to doodles of yesteryear. A mix of black shred, dot, mini star, and hex glitters combine to create a doodle-like look. Photos show it over the neon shades from the Mix It Up Collection. One coat over these or your other favorite shades followed by Smooth Moves and Clearly On Top will give a glass-like finish to your manicure as shown.

All of my swatches above are shown in three coats with topcoat unless otherwise stated. All photography uses a neutral color temperature bulb and white background with white bounce card. My nails are natural with no enhancements or use of blurring/cream base. I have a fairly prominent visible nail line. Please note that neon colors are not all represented in the range of hues available on electronic devices. The pink and orange especially, will not look identical to my photos when seen in person. These are very vibrant and bright neon shades.

Navni Beauty: Rhodolite Garnet


Rhodolite Garnet from Navni Beauty is my latest "treat" to myself. When I saw this polish, I had to have it. It's my favorite color, sparkly, and holo. It is everything I hoped it would be! Take a look:

Alter Ego: Colorburst

Alter Ego has created a group polish for Holo-maniacs on facebook. The polish is available at https://wisconsinsoap.com/ today March 1 through 14.

Colorburst is a super sparkly glitterbomb packed with microglitters that are holo-yellow, orange, bright pink, red, lime green, blue and violet.
The inspiration for this polish is twin volcanos spewing lava.

Forumula was good, no issues to report. Shown in two coats with topcoat, after just the one coat of topcoat the surface of the polish is fairly smooth to the touch. If you like a textured polish, leave off the topcoat and it will have a fine grain texture.
