KBShimmer Swatches & Review - Part Two

Hey guys, today's post is Part Two with four more stunning polishes from KBShimmer!
Check out part one here!

*Products in this post were sent to me for the purpose of a 100% honest unbiased review.*
Kbshimmer Part 2 Kbshimmer Iris My Case
Iris My Case - Three coats.
Iris My Case applied great, the glitters disperse perfectly and the formula was smooth.

"Iris, Lilacs, Violets are some of of the most beloved flowers  come spring, this pastel violet colored polish was inspired by all three.   The soft purple base is filled with glitters in pink, purple, white, periwinkle  and blue. If you are not a fan of large glitters, this polish is for you."

Kbshimmer No Whine Left
No Whine Left - Three coats.
Gorgeous, the blue glitters in No Whine Left really pop in the plum base!
Application was easy, a little streaky on the first coat but it evened out perfectly.

"A deep plum, almost burgundy wine color, this polish is  loaded with blue, aqua, fuchsia, and purple hex glitters in several sizes. The  glitters in this polish seem to pop out in different lights, adding a fun depth  to it.  This polish is more of a “crelly”, a cream with jelly  properties."

Kbshimmer Toucan Touch This
Toucan Touch This - Three coats.
I really love the mini bar glitters in this! Plus the color!
The glitters will pull if you don't let it dry in between coats but it applies very evenly.

"A chartreuse base, almost lime green in color starts  this bold polish out. Gold, green, teal, blue, and orange hex glitters, some  holographic and a fun punch. Micro teal, orange and blue bars are accented by  micro orange glitters.  The bar glitter is micro fine, and adds a sparkle  to the polish without the troubles of normal bar glitter."  

Kbshimmer Witch Way
Witch Way? - Four coats. (I used very thin coats)
I felt like it needed the fourth coat but I apply coats very thin.
The formula on this applied super evenly and just so easy. I love this one so much!!

"After midnight, a full moon is lighting the night sky making it almost purple in color. Stars in different sizes sparkle and shine, like diamonds. This polish, with its deep grape color is full of holographic glitters made to mimic those diamond like stars."

Just like I said yesterday there is not a KBShimmer I own that I've been disappointed with,
hands down in my top ten favorite indies for the creativity and formulation.
I don't remember ever having to dab or place glitters with any of them, they just go on great!
My favorite of these for is Witch Way! Even being a little sheer it just has so much depth and is stunning.

Barielle Sweet Treats Collection - Swatches & Review

Hey guys! Today's post is the 2013 Barielle Sweet treats Spring collection!
I'm loving all these colors!!

*Products in this post were sent to me for the purpose of a 100% honest unbiased review.*
Barielle Banana Drop 
Banana Drop
"creamy banana yellow"

I used three thin coats, this polish has a good formula.
It's a tad thick for a three coater, a little streaky but applies easily.  Plus it's a yellow that i actually like!
Barielle Blue Cotton Candy 
Blue Cotton Candy
"frosted opalescent sea blue"

For this picture I used one coat just ONE!
The formula is amazing! Similar to Cult Nails Let Me Fly, not a dupe but a very close polish for less cash!
Barielle Green Apple Chew 
Green Apple Chew
"a bright creamy lime green"

Two thin coats for opacity, great formula. Gorgeous lime green, what's not to love?
Barielle Lilac Jelly Bean 
Lilac Jelly Bean
"creamy gray violet"

Two thin coats, again great formula. A little streaky on the first coat but levels out on the second one.
Kind of a weird pretty - color, not super flattering on me but I love it!
Barielle Orange Parfait 
Orange Parfait
"creamy soft coral"

Just like Green Apple Chew, two easy coats.
This is such a pretty coral, coming from a non-coral lover anyway! I love the dustyness!

Banana Drop & Green Apple Chew Gradient

For this mani I sponged on a bit of Green Apple Chew over Banana Drop.
GAC went on pretty yellow though, I guess because it went on top a pale yellow? Who knows!
