KBShimmer Fall 2016 Collection
It’s time for the KBShimmer Fall 2016 Collection! You’ll notice that right this second I only have 11 of the 12 shades (my fault) so I’ll be updating this post tomorrow night or Saturday with the missing 12th shade.
And this post is now updated with the 12th shade! Thank you KBShimmer for making it possible, and thanks to everyone for waiting!
Basically I tested the blogger code to make sure it worked, and only put 11 of the 12 shades in my basket to review. I noticed this morning when I got up to swatch them and the KBShimmer team was nice enough to overnight me the missing shade.
For Fall 2016, KBShimmer focused on cremes, glitter crellies and holographics. These shades work really well to transition from Summer to Fall easily!
Let’s get to it!
KBShimmer Sweet Devotion
KBShimmer Sweet Devotion is a white crelly base with blue, red, yellow, orange, green and brown glitters. There are some various sized hexes and some bar glitters mixed in this one. KBShimmer was inspired by fun sized candies and their candy wrappers!
I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Poppy Kisses
KBShimmer Poppy Kisses is an orange toned rusty red linear holographic. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Turning Pointe
KBShimmer Turning Pointe is one of my top picks for this collection! This is a new addition to the Mega Flame line and is a soft peachy pink sheer jelly packed with silver holographic microglitter. i used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Tiers Of Joy
KBShimmer Tiers of Joy is a soft yellow toned beige crelly base with gold holographic, pink, black, orange and coppery glitters mixed in. I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Sage It Ain’t So
KBShimmer Sage It Ain’t So is a soft sage green crelly base with copper, lavender, and silver holographic glitters mixed in, as well as silver holographic shimmer sprinkled in. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Flake Me Home Tonight
KBShimmer Flake Me Home Tonight is a medium minty metallic base with silver flakes and holographic microglitters mixed in. This is a similar finish to the Birthstone Collection shades! I used 3 thin coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Little Boy Hue
KBShimmer Little Boy Hue is a soft, medium baby blue that looks a little dusty. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
This creme has perfect application. It’s a tad on the thicker side, but in the best way possible. It isn’t runny and spreads easy and self levels like a dream.
KBShimmer The Best Mum Ever
KBShimmer The Best Mum Ever is a medium lavender crelly base with pinkish red micro flakes mixed in. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Orchidding Me?
KBShimmer Orchidding Me? is my top pick! You should have seen that coming though – purple and holo and gorgeous? Yes please! This is a warm purple linear holographic with a strong flame. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Oh My Ganache
KBShimmer Oh My Ganache is another favorite! This is a rich chocolate brown linear holographic. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Fright This Way
KBShimmer Fright This Way is a Halloween inspired polish! This is a deep black jelly base with holographic shimmer scattered in as well as purple glitter. I used 3 thin coats and glossy top coat for these photos.
The hex glitters look like they have a curl to them, but that’s pure reflection. The glitters lay flat and had no curling.
KBShimmer Grin and Gerbera It
KBShimmer Grin and Gerbera It is a warm dusty rose creme. I used 2 perfect coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.
KBShimmer Fall 2016 Collection Overview
I really like that this collection isn’t all deep, dark Fall colors. There are some darker shades like Oh My Ganache and Fright This Way, but also lighter and vibrant shades to make the seasonal transition easier. I had no issues with application from these 12 shades.
Also, while supplies last, Fall collection orders will receive metallic purple bat glitters!
My top picks in this collection are: Turning Pointe, Poppy Kisses, Sweet Devotion, Oh My Ganache and Orchidding Me?
Price: $9.25 Each

I know I say it a lot, but I love this collection. I must have Oh My Ganache!!!
lol I’m not even a brown polish lover and I’m consider a backup of Oh My Ganache!
I love love love the first 4 or 5 of these especially Sweet Devotion!
I love her white based glitter crellies so much!
Tiers, Sage, and Ganache OH MY!!!! I need those!! Curse you, Lisa, and your flawless photos! <3

Those are so perfect for you Brooke!
that dark shade has my heart.
Fright This Way is really nice!
I love this collection, Oh My Ganache, Orchidding Me, Poppy Kisses and Flake me Home Tonight are my musts.
Those are awesome picks Tanya! I’m sure they will look amazing on you!
Brown polishes are my favorite so I’m in love with Oh My Ganache! (and holo is even better.) They are all gorgeous, though. I need a few of these. I am thrilled that more indie makers are making more brown polishes.
It’s definitely nice to see them bringing more brown in. I’m not a huge brown polish lover, but I can definitely appreciate a nice one. Thanks for stopping by Gail!
Oh My Ganache has my name written all over it! I’m going to need at least of few from this collection!
These are GORGEOUS – KBShimmer is always my favorite! And your pictures are so crisp!
I can’t pick a fave between the last 4!
Sage and The Best Mum ever are absolutely phenomenal!
I see at least 5 that I will buy as soon as I can. There’s nothing like KBShimmer so I’m excited about these.
Oh I need Flake Me Home Tonight
Holy cow! I love 4 of these shades and I absolutely need two of them right now!
KBShimmer always has the best collections… There are rarely shades I don’t like, and this collection is no exception!
This looks like a really great collection and with a ton of variety! I’m actually liking Oh My Ganache and The Best Mum Ever the most!
Oh my gosh, I LOVE Fright This Way with Orchidding Me? and Flake Me Home Tonight coming up behind!
Whoa, so many must-haves in this collection! Absolutely stunning swatches, I’m completely drooling again.
Orchidding Me? Is my fave too
You m’dear are no friend of my wallet, haha. These are absolutely gorgeous and I definitely need them all in my stash.
PERFECT Fall shades. As usual! <3
The more I look at this collection the more I like it. I can’t believe I’m saying this but my favorites are Grin and Gerbera It and Tiers of Joy, I bet the dusty rose would look awesome on darker skin tones!
