KBShimmer recently announced their 22-polish winter collection, which includes 11 blogger collaboration shades, and I'm really excited to have a few from the collection to show you. Let's start off today with a favorite of mine from the collection. I'd Rather Be With Blue—a blogger collaboration with Cosmetic Sanctuary—is a bright sky blue with softly iridescent shimmers that dries to a beautiful matte finish.
I always love soft vibrant blues, and this one's no different. It's very sweet and charming, made even more so by the shimmers and the matte finish. :-) I think my pictures came out just a little bright; it's a tad more subdued in real life than what you see in the swatches. The formula is smooth and easy to apply, and each coat dries a little faster due to the matte finish. It was still a little uneven at two coats, so I did three coats for perfect coverage.
You can find I'd Rather Be With Blue at KBShimmer.com for $8.75 and HarlowandCo.org for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

DeleteWOW! This shade is just stunning! I didn't expect much from the bottle because the color is just not "me", but wow, that shimmer!
ReplyDeleteYay I'm really glad you like this even though it's not your usual shade. I agree, the shimmers are just magical. :)
DeleteVery cool shade. I think it transcends seasons and is just overall awesome.

DeleteOH MY, this is so much my kind of blue, I love it to bits :)
ReplyDeleteHehe I'm glad to hear that, Maria! I thought you would like this. :)
DeleteWhat a pretty blue!
ReplyDeleteI wasn't crazy about this one from the press release pics, but on you it looks really beautiful! Reminds me of what "pretty paper, pretty ribbons of blue" would look like. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm glad you like it on me. :)

DeleteGorgeous on you dear Yun! And I love this kind of "cold" bright blues that look equally stunning in summer or winter <3
ReplyDeleteI totally agree, this is one of those blues that looks great all-year-round. :)
DeleteVery pretty! I love the shimmers.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm a huge fan of the shimmers myself. :)
DeleteIcy sky blue seems to be a trend for this winter, not that I'm complaining, it's a beautiful color. I can see this looking so pretty peeking out of a fuzzy white sweater.
ReplyDeleteOooh fuzzy white sweater... that would go perfectly with every nail polish color, but especially this blue. :)
