Show Me Your Nails 2.0

[Tamara76]

Due to some technical glitches with the original Show Me Your Nails Thread, I am starting a new thread with @vegchililover78's blessing (She says "hello," by the way!).

Please share your nail looks, nail art and manicures!

...And don't forget to check out @Beadshopgirl's Nail Stamping Thread for stamping inspiration! ❤️

@Titian06  Awww I have a friend with a very expensive yarn 🧶 addiction as well!!! 

[Mellmars1185]

@WinglessOne Spectacular shades. They are all really unique and pretty. You thumb is really catching my eye! 

[WinglessOne]

Thank you @Mellmars1185 ! 

[CookieGirl1]

I remember liking your initial swatch of "Flavorite" when you showed it and I REALLY like it on your nails.  That's my kind of color!

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @CookieGirl1 ! Forgot to mention I used KBS's quick dry top coat this time. 🙂 I haven't had to use much hand sanitizer since finishing this mani, but I will over the weekend—so I'll get to see if this top coat holds up better to hand sanitizers than Glisten & Glow does. 

[CookieGirl1]

@WinglessOne I HATE how hard hand sanitizer is on my nails!  I use a ton of it as well and I'm a constant hand-washer so I always feel like I'm lucky to get a few days out of a mani no matter what I'm using 😐.

[Titian06]

I love all of these, @WinglessOne ! 🥰  Of course my eyes went straight to My Fla-vor-ite color followed by Meet Me in the Dark.  Hidden Potential in the bottom pics is gorgeous!  Now I can't wait to try the KBShimmer I bought.

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @Titian06 ! I look forward to seeing your KBS! Which shade did you get? 

[Titian06]

@WinglessOne - I got Rock the Float.  It's described as a hot pink with color shift in gold and peachy orange in bright light and tangerine, rose, and fuchsia in soft light.

[WinglessOne]

@Titian06  Oooh, that’s going to look beautiful on you! 

[RGbrown]

@WinglessOne 

As is to be expected, I focused on the purple first, and was pleased to see it's one I already have, so no need for me to add it to my shopping list 😅 EdM and Shovelin' both catch my eye next, but really, all of these are gorgeous, and I love how you mix and match colors with your manis, putting together shades I'd never thought about combining. It always works! 😍

[WinglessOne]

Aw, thank you @RGbrown ! One fun thing about very shifty duo/multichromes is being able to make 'em work with so many other colors. 😄 I didn't even have a color story in mind this time; just "yay, let's throw all the newbies on my nails, even the green one!" 

[Cissy63]

Oh I’m lovin these colors @WinglessOne! That Icy blue and Grape are saying “come to mama “!!  Beautiful 🤩 

[WinglessOne]

@Cissy63  Those 2 shades compliment each other nicely. 🙂 Which is kinda funny since, according to KBS, My Fla-vor-ite Color was summer inspired while Everyday I'm Shovelin' was winter inspired.

@WinglessOne, oh that icy blue polish is gorgeous! I understand your having initial doubts with the color before it arrived - for me, icy blues, whether in the form of polish or clothing can be challenging - is it too blue, not blue enough, too icy, not icy enough. I think KBShimmer Everyday I’m Shovelin’ hits all the right tones - beautiful color and that holo!

[WinglessOne]

@itsfi  KBS's promo photos of that shade don't do it justice. I mean, they managed to catch a bit of rainbow in a couple photos, but I wasn't prepared for the holo effect in person. The rainbow glitter seems to dance over the blue. There's no way to capture that in photos. 😄 Definitely an icy blue I recommend to anyone who normally has trouble with that color. 

[CynthieLu]

There's so much going on in those colours @WinglessOne great shine and sparkles and with out the flash I can see multiple colours in each one 🤩 that light blue one could make a nice winter mani with some white in there ❄️  😋 it's in the name I gotta guess it's snow thier taking about lol

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @CynthieLu ! Yep, the inspiration behind Everyday I'm Shovelin' is snow. KBShimmer usually has little inspiration stories for each of their shades; you can read 'em at their site. 🙂 

[makeitup305]

@WinglessOne I’m loving those KBShimmers, I’m wearing one of their “flash”shades today. Sorry it’s goopy on you, I didn’t experience that at all with the one I’m wearing, although it’s a different type of polish.

[WinglessOne]

Thanks @makeitup305 ! The KBSes aren't what I'd call goopy overall. For me, a truly goopy polish is one that's too thick with an actual goopy texture, won't self-level on the nail, and is generally a pain to work with on the entire nail. By contrast, these KBS multichromes do level themselves well, and I can lay down nice thin layers with no problems. That's why the nail edge goopines is so strange: these polishes applied so nicely on the rest of each nail, I didn't expect to have this tip issue. Huh. 

Good to know the flash (reflective, I assume) formula doesn't have this issue. I also have a KBS thermal but haven't worn it on my nails yet, so I'll have to see how that one behaves.
