KBShimmer Spring 2015 Collection
Happy Monday! Today I’ve got the KBShimmer Spring 2015 Collection, as well as the Pantone Color of the Year Marsala shade Men Are From Mars-ala. The Spring 2015 collection launches February 6, 2015. The Spring 2015 collection is inspired by sun-kissed days and lush gardens blooming, the Easter season, and Pantone’s 2015 Spring color, Aquamarine. It’s filled with creamy pastels, metallic glitters and sparkle and shine. I’m a big fan of Aquamarine and I like it much better than Marsala!

Eyes White Open
white cream with 2 coat coverage
You can almost get away with 1 coat. This is great for nail art.
Meow or Never
Based on the Pantone Spring Color Glacier Gray, this is a very pale gray, almost white shade, with pops of purple, gray periwinkle and sky blue.
I love the glitters in Meow or Never.
I’m so Sweet Pea
The palest of purple base set off by an explosion of glitters in pink, mint, purple and turquoise.
I love all the glitter colors in this one! How could I not? The pale purple tint is barely perceptible.
Cool Hand Cuke
This pale minty green polish is loaded with patel glitters in circles, triangles, stars and hexes. A toh of holographic sparkle completes this pastel polish. I suspect the name is a nod to the old movie Cool Hand Luke.
The star glitter is so cute!
Sweet Egg-scape
a pale, bubblegum pink polish. glitters with pastel aqua stars, coral triangles, lavender dots, red squares and silver holo hexes in a pink base.
I like the star glitter and coral triangles in this one!
To Peach His Own
a pale peach polish with holographic glitters in lime green, gold, violet and magenta.
I like the pale peach base shade. I feel like the magenta looks more red. Between the magenta and lime green glitter this actually makes me think of Christmas.
Wind Swarm
Based on the Spring 2015 Pantone Color Aquamarine, this has a pale sky blue base, a mix of purple, gold, white and pink glitters, with a hint of micro glitter.
I really like the micro glitter in Wind Swarm.
Funky Cold Patina
like a long forgotten ancient copper statue turned blue-green in color, this polish features a cool turquoise green base with pops of metallic copper blue and purple
I like that this is bright (and the name makes me giggle). The pops of copper and purple glitter are nice.
Ins and Sprouts
pale citron green linear holo
Blue-d Lines
pale blue in color, this cool toned polish shines with linear holographic sparkle
Such a pretty holo!
Thistle Be The Day
a pale pinkish purple that shines in the sun with a linear holographic rainbow
I love this one! The holo is stunning.
Blush Money
Based on the 2015 Pantone Color, Strawberry Ice, this peachy-rose colored polish shows off gold shimmer indoors and a linear holographic rainbow shine while outside
I didn’t expect to love this one but I do. I like the inspiration for the color and the holo and gold shimmer.
Men are From Mars-ala
A linear holographic red-brown
While I’m certainly not a Pantone Marsala fan, I think that this is a beautiful interpretation of Marsala and a great way to wear the shade. (See my Best Ways to Wear Marsala)

These holos are just stunning. Seriously And the formula is perfection.
KBShimmer’s formula is typically easy to work with and I found the shades in this collection to be the same. The holos are especially amazing.
My favorites are Meow or Never, I’m So Sweet Pea, Ins and Sprouts, Thistle Be the Day, and Blush Money.
You can expect manis from me featuring this collection soon!
What are your favorites from the KBShimmer Spring 2015 collection?
These are gorgeous. I totally agree, I like the Spring Color Aquamarine, WAY better! It’s much more Spring-like anyway than Marsala and more universally flattering.
They are pretty
Little disappointed in the wheel swatches…colors look pretty though.
I’m putting up manis all week with the polishes.
So many great shades! I really like Cool Hand Luke though.
Oh my… I am looking and those holos and love them. I must have.
Yes!
So many gorgeous shades
I think so too Laura!
Meow or Never cracks me up.
The names are so cute!
I’m finding it absolutely impossible to pick a favorite. I want them all!
The holos <3
omg, those halo are soooo gorgeous! i’m particularly love Blush Money (it looks like a perfect blend of peach to pink) and Ins and Spouts. the bf might enjoy Men Are From Mar-sala. is Blush Money’s and Men Are From Mars-ala’s less obvious than Ins and Spouts in real life? or just the way they were photographed?
They’re less obvious. Also, Blush Money is lighter. My camera was on the wrong setting when I took these photos and I just figured that out >.< I did mani pictures with Blush Money so will try to have them up later today to share with you.
I don’t wear a lot of glitter/shimmer polishes myself, but I think these are so gorgeous 🙂
Glad you like them!
I’m more of a “Don’t Pink Twice” kind of girl. I feel since I’m so fair these colors would just be blah on me. Maybe because I’m so used to seeing myself in brights in the spring/summer and VERY dark colors in the winter. I do like Sweet Egg-Scape (to layer over pink) and Blush Money (which would be very tame for me LOL).
The palest peach and palest pink don’t look good on me because they make my hands look really red, but I can see why they look good on others! I love the holos ! Wearing Blush Money today and it looks nice 🙂
I think we share the same taste in brights or darks for polish
Yes!!
Since Cult Nails closed, I’m happy that the pigmentation of Eyes White Shut is almost exact for me as Tempest was.
Yeah it’s pretty good!
It’s the holos that I’d love to have. Thistle Be The Day is screaming out to me.
Yes! That one!
The holos are INTENSE. I love them soooo much! <3
Me too 🙂
I love this entire collection. I truly need Men are from Mars-ala and Blush Money
Blush Money will look awesome on you and Mars-ala is definitely your color!
I loveeee the holos!
YAy me too!
