KBShimmer & Emily Liebert Collab

Press Sample

KBShimmer creates vibrant and distinctive nail polishes that spark confidence and self-expression. Bestselling author Emily Liebert writes compulsively readable novels that plumb the depths of female relationships.

Together, the two have collaborated on an exclusive duo of polishes inspired by Liebert’s new book PRETTY REVENGE, a novel of psychological suspense that explores just how far someone will go for vengeance.




The polishes, a daring red and a shimmering silver, are named after Liebert’s two main characters, Kerrie and Jordana, and reflect their personalities and dualities. Wear red if you’re feeling bold and dangerous. Try silver for a look that’s dazzlingly chic.

Kerrie
(Shown in two coats with topcoat, formula is good.)
I would describe this as a red linear holo. It is a straight up red.






Jordana
(Shown in two coats with topcoat, formula is good.)
I would describe this as a sparkly, silvery holo made with large pigment; there is no texture when I squish the polish between my fingers. I can't speak to removal since I use a peel off base.






Are you a Kerrie? A Jordana? Or both? Keep people guessing this summer, with the PRETTY REVENGE duo available now. (set excludes book)

Lollipop Posse: July 2019 PPU

Press Sample

July's PPU is a rewind! What that means this year is that brands are making polishes from past PPUs. Some will be in the PPU shop, and some will be in the brand's shop! Lollipop Posse Lacquer is doing both!




Available in the Polish Pickup Shop 7/05 - 7/08 will be 'Spirit of the Kohaku River 2.0'
no cap
Inspired by characters from the film "Spirited Away", it is the embodiment of Haku's true form in a nail polish bottle. At the end of the film, Chihiro helps Haku remember that before Yubaba took his name, he was the spirit of the Kohaku River.
This gorgeous shade is a blue crelly base with duochrome shimmer that shifts between green and blue, scattered holographic pigment, and a smattering of pink/gold/bronze/green multichrome flakes. Karen states there are not many noticeable differences between the original and the 2.0 version, although the holographic pigment used is slightly different.






Lollipop's second re-release, 'Your Name Belongs to Me Now 2.0'
no cap
Available at lollipopposselacquer.com from 7/14 - 7/31.
Inspired by Yubaba (also from "Spirited Away") and her name-stealing ways. This shade is a navy blue crelly that suspends red/green shifting shimmer, rust/red/green shifting multichrome pigment, and holographic flakies.
Please note that due to pigment changes by the manufacturer, the 2.0 version of this polish is visibly different from the original in several ways. The new shifting pigment causes the base to lean a darker shade of navy, but there is definitely more multichrome shift!





Both polishes are shown in two coats with topcoat and have fantastic formulas. I am so glad that we're all getting a second chance at polishes we missed, what will you be picking up?
