LynB Designs: Nostalgic Vibes Collection

LynB Designs is launching the Nostalgic Vibes collection on June 13th and you can get half off with code NOSTALGIA through the 17th. The collection is a throwback to things from Jennalyn's childhood and maybe yours too! So many of these make me smile and reminisce so come with me on a trip down memory lane!

Bake It Easy- cool toned pink filled with pink to orange to gold shifting shimmer. I am totally remembering my Easy Bake Oven and how excited I was to make brownies all by myself!

Cup Full of Galaxy- violet base filled with holo shimmer and green to blue to indigo shifting shimmer. Ah the ol', and very well-known, 90's paper cup design! I know the design as "Jazz" - a broad teal crayon squiggle topped with a much narrower purple squiggle. The design was originally owned by Sweetheart which was bought by the current owner, Solo.

Grow Pixel Grow- royal blue to teal thermal with blue to indigo shifting shimmer. Giga Pets and Tamagotchi were loved by many! I didn't get to have one, but I enjoyed getting updates on my friends' pets.

I’ve Got Control Issues- pastel grey with red to orange shifting shimmer and added holo flakies. This one is definitely a shoutout to Nintendo from Jennalyn!

Kit and Caboodle- pastel purple to pale green thermal filled with tiny pink to orange to gold shifting flakies. Definitely a callback to the original makeup toolbox, Caboodles!

Lix My Lips- soft indigo base with silver to green to lavender shifting magnetic pull and added holo flakies. Anyone remember the Bonne Bell Lip Lix? I had several of those and the Maybelline Kissing Potions, I still have more lip gloss/balms than I need. I am really loving the addition of the holo flake to the magnetic, it is stunning in velvet style!

So Juicy- almost neon pink jelly base loaded with indigo to purple to pink shifting shimmer. First thing that comes to my mind is Juicy Couture, super popular in the 2000's!

So Moody- navy blue base with pink to orange to green shifting magnetic pull and pinky purple glow in the dark. I think this polish is referring to a mood ring, which I definitely had at least one when I was a kid! Shown in velvet style.

KBShimmer: Set For Life
If lucky, the end of the day can be spent relaxing with a cool drink in hand, loved ones nearby, and ideally, the warm ocean breeze and setting sun offering a picture-perfect end to the day. Golden rays turn the deepening sky into a breathtaking view. If Christy could be lucky enough to enjoy a beach sunset each night, she’d feel like she was set for life!

Set For Life is a stunning magnetic multichrome that echoes a setting sun. A deep, shimmering indigo-to-navy base sets off a vibrant pink magnetic pigment. Fuchsia, orange, and even gold or green tones come out to play at different angles and in more direct light. This polish is shown in the velvet style using the KBShimmer Horseshoe magnet. It can also be worn with other magnet styles, offering multiple uniquely beautiful looks.

KBShimmer Sugared Papaya and Hibiscus Body Scrub
Ahhh, vacation. Pack your bags and leave your worries at home! It's time to unwind with a sweet frozen drink and the fragrant tropical blooms of paradise while lounging seaside. Inspired by the tropics, KBShimmer's June sugar scrub is colored with vibrant blue and coral swirls to complement its fun and fruity scent.

A tropical blend of juicy melon and sugared papaya is layered with lychee juice, coconut, lemon, and pineapple. Notes of plumeria blossom and wild hibiscus intertwine with raspberry vines, seagrass, and vanilla for a scent that will have you thinking you're in paradise.

PLEASE NOTE: Warm weather can cause oils in the scrub to separate in the jar; this will not harm your scrub. Just stir before using to combine.

Victorian Varnish: Creepy Crawlies Lavish Hand & Cuticle Cream - In the forest a multitude of insects roam, their paths laced with crisp bergamot, dark black currant, and earthy oakmoss.
