"Unwrapping a sugary treat can bring back fond memories. As a child, tempting displays of treats at the concession stand made going to a movie the perfect activity for a hot summer’s day. Summer sleepovers meant picking out our favorite candy to enjoy during late night giggle sessions. Road trips meant snacks, and there was no better way to help the miles fly by than to enjoy a roll of sweet and tart candies or a pack of jaw-breaking balls that lasted forever. Gum that came in rolls made for hours of bubble blowing, while sour coated treats made for colorful and sore tongues. All grown up, the candy aisle may not be the magical place it once was, but the office candy bowl can still make the day a bit brighter.
The Sugar Rush collection is a nod to all those colorful, sugary treats. Filled with a mouth-watering mix of juicy colors sure to satisfy your sweet tooth, this nine-piece collection features near neon shimmers, bold color-shifting shades, and never-seen-before vibrant, reflective colors."

KBshimmer | Any Way You Slice It
Described as a bold orange shimmer. This vibrant orange shade twinkles in the light and easily
shows off gold and yellow hues. In lower light, a more intense orange shimmer almost hints at a coppery red, while at extreme angles may even show a hint of lime.
Shown here in 3 coats, plus top coat. Formula was sheer but built up well. Dries smoothly with no texture however a top coat is still recommended for a full, glossy finish.
KBshimmer | Cool Beans
Described as a blueberry-colored base that is loaded with a striking shifty shimmer. Boasting a strong green flash, different lighting and angles bring out teal, gold, blue, and peach. With a slightly larger shimmer, this shade offers a subtle sparkle that enhances the jewel tones of the polish.
Shown here in 2 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries smoothly with no texture however a top coat is still recommended for a full, glossy finish.
KBshimmer | Feeling Good
Described as a boldly colored pink reflective nail polish. Loaded with reflective pigment, this bright pink shade comes alive in the light, with a daring hot pink hue that will keep you staring at your nails. In low light, darker pink twinkles with peach and gold tones.
Shown here in 2 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with a good amount of texture so I sealed this with 1 coat of KB's Smooth Moves Glitter Smoothing Topper plus 1 coat of a fast dry top coat.
KBshimmer | Pucker Up
Described as a luminous chartreuse-leaning yellow neon nail polish. A strong coppery orange to lime shimmer is accented by micro holo bits. Low lighting amps up the green hue, while the shimmer shows off peach, lemony yellow and gold.
Shown here in 2 coats, plus top coat. If you have more of a free edge than I do then you may need 3 coats for full opacity. Formula was good and applied well. Dries smoothly with no texture however a top coat is still recommended for a full, glossy finish.
KBshimmer | Pull It Together
Described as a vibrant green in hue, this reflective shade is full of sparkle. In lower lighting, the perfect summer green twinkles. In more direct light or flash, a near neon lime green shows off its vibrant hue.

KBshimmer | Put A Ring On It
Described as a vibrant, teal-leaning blue nail polish. Glowy holographic flakes dance within the blue base to add anbit of sparkle, while blue and aqua shimmer pops to bring out purple and indigo hues in different lighting and angles.
Shown here in 2 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with very subtle texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.
KBshimmer | Such A Smartie
Described as a faded purple polish loaded with color-shifting shimmer and linear holographic sparkle. In lower lighting, a rainbow of hues can be seen, with pink, gold, lime, and blue playing against the lavender background. In bright light, the lime, gold and peach tones pop against the linear holographic rainbow.

KBshimmer | You Wanna Peach Of Me?
