Stash Swatch Initiative: KBShimmer Snow Flaking Way

Hello!

Another new KBShimmer to show you today. This one is my favorite -- Snow Flaking Way!

Snow Flaking Way is an awesome midnight purple jelly base with large circle glitter, snowflake-shaped glitter, small and medium hex glitters, microglitter, and thin, short bar glitter. It's reminiscent of night snowfall, and I love how the bar glitter implies wind and movement. :)

Swatches today are one swiped coat plus one dabbed coat over this week's Sinful Colors Let's Talk swatch. I topped this with one coat of Gelous and one of NYC In a New York Minute. Like Snow Much Fun, you can wear this on it's own or layer it. The formula is good, but I did have to work a bit to get the bigger glitters out of the bottle. I also took care to place them purposefully, so they were balanced evenly.

I purchased this directly from KBShimmer's website. It is introduced there with  "Being a Minnesota native, living in Indiana has made snow all the more magical, as this far south, snow is not covering the ground at all times during winter.  This polish is an ode to those midnight flurries that covered the cars each morning." I'm also from Minnesota, and I totally get that about this polish! I love snow, but since I've been here in the mid-Atlantic, I haven't seen very much of it. At least I have this polish to tide me over until we make the big move back!
