BG Cosmetics: Kimber's Korner

Hello lovelies! It's Caturday!! Charlie would say hello but she is busy sleeping. It's hard work being a kitteh in my house!

Today I have my namesake polish from BG Cosmetics to share with you. Yep, there's a polish named for me! My girl Ketlyn is the creative genius behing BG Cosmetics, and she created this gorgeous polish for me! Even cooler, it also has a matching eyeshadow!

 Kimber's Korner is a beautiful Cobalt Blue jelly packed with various colors of blue glitters, holo glitters, and tiny holo flitter. It's vibrant and sassy, and a whole lotta fun!

In the interest of color accuracy, I did not alter these photos. My skin tone is way off in these, but the polish is true to life. All photos are 3 coats of Kimber's Korner topped with Gelous and HK Girl Top Coat.

*Sigh*...I do love this polish. But I think that's par for the course since it was created for me. Ketlyn knows I love Cobalt Blue and glitter, and she managed to create a polish that is absolutely perfect for me. I love how vibrant this polish is, and the depth! Wow!

Formula:
As with all BG Cosmetics polishes, Kimber's korner has a thick, but incredibly usable and manageable formula. No thickening, glopping, or clumpy glitters.

Application:
Smooth and silky, KK appplied easily, staying right where I put it. No dragging, balding, fishing for larger glitters or clumping at the tips. Since KK is a glitterbomb, it does dry textured so if you like things smooth, use a coat of Gelous or Glitter Food before your usual top coat.

I am thrilled with this polish. It's everything I wanted, and then some! You can find Kimber's Korner via the BG Cosmetics shop on Etsyfor $10/full size bottle. This is a Limited Edition, so grab it while you can! While you're there, don't forget to check out all of Ketlyn's awesome creations including Lung Cancer Awareness Polish that she created for my Mother, and her new line of eyeshadows! All of her products are created with the finest ingredients and are all Big 3 Free and Cruelty Free. Don't forget to use code"KIMBERSKORNER" at checkout to save 15% on your order!

My Namesake Polish! Zoya Kimber!

Hi guys! Happy Friday!!!! I'm feeling fairly decent now, so I'm looking forward to getting some things done this weekend.

Today I have my namesake polish to share with you! Zoya Kimber from Zoya's Surf Collection! I love this polish, although in all honestly I was really hoping that my namesake would be blue, but I do love me some pinks.

Zoya Kimber is a gorgeous Magenta/Pink with lovely golden shimmer. In some lights it tends to lean more Coral, but in direct light it's pretty pink. It reminds me of China Glaze Strawberry Strawberry Fields, which is one of my fave CG pinks. I don't have many complaints about this baby, other than my bottle got a bit thick on the second coat, but nothing unmanageable. I do tend to polish under a pretty strong light, so all the heat can thicken up a polish pretty quickly. I've also been having some issues with bubbling and chipping lately, but I'm not sure that isn't my lazy butt not really cleaning the nail plate after I moisturized before I used Kimber. I'm also experimenting with base and top coats since my nails are thinning a bit since I stopped taking Biotin and after buffing out some stainage.  Please feel free to comment with your fave base coat for thin/weak nails!

Anyway, back to the good stuff! Here is Zoya Kimber! All photos taken in direct sunlight.

1 coat Instant Artificials
2 coats Zoya Kimber
1 coat Butter Londer PD Quick Top Coat

Isn't she just stunning? I'm just tickled to have a polish that shares my name (even if it's not named after me specifically), and the fact that I just love it to death is a bonus! I really want to use this in a gradient and some stamping. I guarantee you will be seeing more of this beauty soon!

I hope you all have a great weekend and thanks for stopping by!

Happy Polishing!
