KBShimmer: PPU & IPU September 2019

Press Sample

Lime Margarita Sugar Scrub
Inspired by a scene in Practical Magic when the quartet of witches sings about limes and coconuts while sipping their margaritas.
This juicy, drink-inspired scent starts with notes of salty lime blended with subtle hints of raspberry, apple, strawberry, and peach. Finished with wisps of jasmine and vanilla, this scent smells so much like the real thing that you'll wish you could drink it!

It smells so much like the real thing that after using the scrub I was wishing I had a margarita to drink! As with all of Christy's scrubs this left my skin soft, supple and smelling delicious!






Something Wicca This Way Comes
Inspired by Christy's favorite WB show, Charmed. A magnetic duochrome polish whose base shifts from shades of blue to hues of purple. When a magnet is used, the multichrome magnetic effect moves through shades of peach, pink, lime and gold. Finally, sparks of holo micro glitter and colorful flakes are reminiscent of magic floating through the air.

This looks like an aurora borealis in the night sky to me. I have always wanted to see them in person. I freaking love it! Shown in two coats with topcoat. I used the S magnet for the effect.








The Polish Pick Up will open September 6 at 10am Central.

Lollipop Posse: The Alchemical Child (Sept PPU)

Press Sample

Lollipop's creation for September's Polish Pickup was inspired by Karen's current literary obsession: Deborah Harkness' All Souls Trilogy.

The trilogy follows the story of Diana Bishop, a medieval history professor and witch who discovers a long-thought lost alchemy script, Ashmole 782.
Karen looked to the image of the alchemical child from Ashmole 782 in the television series "A Discovery of Witches" for the color inspiration.

The Polish Pick Up will open September 6 at 10am Central.



The Alchemical Child
A purpley/red based multichrome that shifts between red, orange, rust, and gold. So full of glow and shift, and perfect for the Fall season.
No cap.
Shown is two coats with topcoat.




Are ya'll ready to see her shift? Are your drinks secured on a table far away and are you seated? Yes? Let's go!







Let's get up close and personal so we can see all the goodies in this polish!




And just in case you missed it in those shifty swatch snapshots, check out the purple seered edges in this bottle shot! There's fire and mystery in that bottle!



Lit from within, on fire, impossible to capture in a still shot, mysteriously violet seered, must see in person polish. There are many more descriptive phrases for this polish but I would be here far past my bedtime if I don't stop now. So just trust and add this to your list as soon as wishlisting opens up at PPU!

Also!
Save a spot for another couple of PPU stunners that I'll be reviewing before launch. (sign up for email notifications or follow my facebook page to know as soon as I publish.)
