KB Shimmer Summer 2014 Swatches and Reviews ( Warning Pic Heavy)

Press Sample
I was so happy when I decided not to give up blogging and then right away got a letter announcing the new line.  I knew I was making the right decision plus now with a professional journalist.  My daughter has agreed to do a guest post next month. She will be choosing the hall pass.  So, I am just really excited.  Christy also gave us the opportunity to choose the ones we wanted.  I was allowed to choose six and I really got some that I I don’t have many like and there is one other one I really like.  So, Christy did warn that the solids did take a while to dry.  I thought oh no.  It wasn’t that bad especially because I had missed my telenovela for two days, so I did one hand, then another while I watched the second.

Low and be Bold was my first choice mainly because I don’t have this color and think it will be great for my the polish rainbow.  It was sooth likes the ones from the last collection but these are Jellies and did take a while to dry but like I said I just put on a telenovela.

Royal as Reign lives up to it’s name.  It is that deep royal purple.  It does give you a little royal feeling when wearing it.    This one is a jelly so it does have a longer dry time that the other others don’t have.  Jellies need that extra time though to dry so can look good.  Now, I did come up with a really neat trick to getting perfect jelly nails.  I plan to share that with you this week.

There was no way I was getting past not getting this one.  It is called Goldie Rules and yes my co-editor is getting so lazy but she is so loveable.  As soon as my husband leaves for work she nuzzles  into the area by  my stomach or the space behind my legs when I lie down.  The good thing is that she sleeps in her bed at night.  So my Husband and I are getting much better night sleeps.

Let’s Not Coral is just a regular crème polish.  This is my everyday favorite.  It is just so pretty because it is really has a lot of pink in it.  I didn’t have any problems with this one.  Because I made nail decals.  I am really excited to share this with everyone but this was my first trial.  I am thinking that you need to place a coat of  top coat down before you actually start adding colors.

She Tweaks Out is a textured polish.  It dries super fast and two coats is all you need.  I like the matte finish but I know some of you will want to see it with  a shiny coat on top.  So, her it is.

Run it is the Coppers a gorgeous peach holographic.  I have one from Cirque Polish in Cypress but this one from KB Shimmer I think is a better formula at a much better price.  It is pretty pigmented so two or three coats is ok.  This one goes on smoothly and dries quickly.

Theses polishes go on sale May 23, 2014 at KB Shimmer

Hall Pass of the Month

This month’s Hall Pass is Jessie Williams from Grey’s Anatomy where he plays Dr. Jefferson  Avery.   He had a really  brave moment this month when he ran off with the bride April  who he was fooling around with before she decided to marry poor ambulance driver

 

So, what make this man so sexy?  His voice, his eyes and let me say those are some beautiful eyes.  He plays the shy game and when he is out with you that is exactly what it is he is with you.   Grey’s Anatomy scored a winner in this.  I know what else is in his resume but to me that just doesn’t matter this man just has that it factor.

I Never Can Say Goodbye

After some very boring time, I realized, I can't stop.  And have you seen the new summer collections?    I feel so left out and miss doing this.  I will be having back surgery sometime by the end of the month.  I even have the hall pass.  It's just too much fun and I really need this in my life.
I' m back!

You might have seem this one coming.

I have been dealing with a lot of physical pain.  I have found out some information that is quite disturbing information about Texas.  Some of you know I have been wanting to go to California.  I want to start that process but first I really need to tend to medical issues. I will no longer be doing this blog. I am keeping my blog Knives, Depression and Nail Polish@blogspot.com.   You can see with what I'd doing on there.  I will be on Instagram and Pinterest ( you can't sot the addiction) and putting my too cents in at Facebook.  I'll be reading your blogs.  I just won't be doing these posts.  So many of you have been so wonderful. Thank you.

Ciao for now, Bella,
Patty Greenberg

a England She Walks in Beauty

This is an older polish from a-England.  I wore it the other day and gorgot how much I love a-England.  I hope out with a spring line.  The ballerina collection was a bit of a flop.  They really haven't really had a line that has been as successful.  Revamping polishes just hasn't worked.  I think a beautiful pastel or just a neutral line would be great.  They haven't released anything like that.  So, a -England please give us some colors so we can collect more of your little gems.

Updated Hall Pass From February

I was trying to update this but had to go through live writer and it forces me to put it in on this date. I realized that the hall passes had more pictures and my poor Sebastian only one picture not fair so here are some more.  He is just so cute.  Yes, if you read the post before this I am in major back pain and all I can do is fantasize so I do spend time just looking.   
 
You might notice Hall Pass of the Month.  I think everyone knows what a hall pass is.  My husband woke up the other day and said he was dreaming that you were leaving me for one of your old boyfriends.  I just laughed and thought to myself been there done that so I thought of my hall passes and told him the only person I would have a fun afternoon with is one my hall passes.  I am very serious.  I live in Houston and I don't even see attractive men.  All the time I spend at doctors offices and hospitals and here and there and nothing.  So, I thought it would be cute to have a hall pass of the month.  I'll pick the first one and you all will pick the rest.
So, most of you probably don't know Sebastian Ruili.  He has been on my list for eight long years.  He is a Spanish novella star currently starring in Lo Que La Vida Me Robo as Alejandro Almonte.  This  show is more popular than any American show right now.  It so good.  I only can dream that mine will come close. He is currently single and 35 years old.  Good age.  There is just something about him.
