"In my opinion, autumn is the perfect season to enjoy the outdoors. Crisp mornings give way to days made for dressing cozy; a worn pair of jeans, new boots, and warm jacket make the ideal outfit to enjoy the cooler weather. Weekends might be spent shopping for picture-perfect gourds and giant mums to start seasonal decorating or heading to a fall festival to browse handmade crafts and fall foliage. A get together with friends to grab a cider donut or warm cup of soup could have you ending the day at a local farm walking through a corn maze or munching on fresh kettle corn in front of a bonfire. This September, KBShimmer brings you the It’s Fall About You collection with new nine polishes
inspired by all things autumn." - KBshimmer

Disclaimers:
*All photos/videos are taken indoors under 30W Daylight Bulbs with a Canon DSLR Camera.
*I angle my hand in direct lighting as well as low lighting to capture as many of the shifts as I am able.
*All photos/videos shown with a fast dry top coat unless otherwise stated.
*All Magnetic Particles in a polish disperses over time, in my experience 9 times out of 10 I am unable to keep a thin, crisp line to stay put (unless using a gel magnetic polish); my photos are shown with a 20+ minute dry time so the magnetic line may seem more crisp then if I were to have kept the polish on for longer.
*My Reflective swatches are also shown with low lighting and camera flash.
Described as a deepened purple multichrome nail polish. The grape-like color of this lacquer quickly morphs into burgundy and magenta tones nearing black at times, with some angles showing off warmer pink and fuchsia tones. Like stars twinkling in a late evening sky, holo glow flakes add bits of rainbow sparkle.
Shown here in 2 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with subtle texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.
KBshimmer | Core Values
Described as a deep jewel-toned red nail polish that sparkles like dew-covered apples. This shifty shade subtly morphs from a deep red hue into maroon and brick tones. Extreme angles in some lighting may even show gold and deep pink hues.
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 | Go Big Or Gourd Home
Described as a shimmery pine green nail polish. Loaded with color-shitiing shimmer, the sparkling, blue-based green base quickly shows off pink, coppery orange, and warm gold tones. Some angles may even show hints of lime and aqua.
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 | I Can’t De-Cider
Described as a cider-colored multichrome nail polish loaded with holo glow flakes. Boasting a warm coppery base with hues of yellow, gold and lime, a deeper, near rust orange color can appear in certain angles and lighting. Silver holo flakes spark interest as they catch the light, giving a soft holographic effect.
Shown here in 3 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 | Let The Beet Drop
Described as a deep, purple-leaning, beet-colored reflective nail polish. In some lighting, the base color skews more mulberry or wine, while bright lighting brings out a stunning purple reflection, for the perfect shade that can easily transition from fall into winter.
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 Smooth Moves plus 1 coat of a fast dry top coat.
KBshimmer | Patch Things Up
Described as a boldly pumpkin colored red-orange nail polish. This shimmery shade lights up with glimmering gold color shifts that show off hints of red, pink, and lime.
Shown here in 3 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 | Ready To Throw Down
Described as a deep, navy-based magnetic polish loaded with twinkling holo glow flakes. A magnet will pull vibrant purple, fuchsia, and rose-pink tones to the forefront, while the deep base can look near black or flash bluer. Without a magnet, this polish’s purple hue shimmers and shines, showing off shifts to pink and salmon tones.
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 | Ripped Apart
Described as a deep, navy-blue nail polish with maximum sparkle. Reflective pigment catches the light for a twinkling royal blue effect that amplifies the navy base color.
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 Smooth Moves plus 1 coat of a fast dry top coat.
KBshimmer | The Perfect Match
Described as a sheer, but buildable shimmering nail polish. A pale, silvery white shade hosts a color-shifting shimmer, showing off fiery shades of coppery red, glowing peachy orange, warm gold, and lime. Amidst the shimmer is a glowing holographic flake, catching the light for a dash of rainbow sparkle.
Shown here in 3 coats, plus top coat. Formula was good and applied well. Dries with subtle texture so a top coat is needed for a full, glossy finish.
