Kiwi Nail Art by The Nail Network

Hello! This is Chelsea from The Nail Network with a little nail art guest post for you today! I don’t know about you, but ever since it started getting warm out here, I’ve been craving fruit non-stop. One of my favorite summer fruits is kiwi, so I decided to create some nail art inspired by them!

For this design, I used China Glaze Def Defying as my base and a mix of Def Defying and white for the half moon area, which I just painted free hand with a small brush. I painted some short lines coming out of the half moons with China Glaze Budding Romance and finished the look by adding some small dots around the half moons with a black polish. I topped it off with a coat KBShimmer Clearly On Top and was done!

Do you like kiwi? Do you like kiwi nail art? Let me know in the comments! I hope you enjoyed this post and thank you to Christy for having me! 🙂

KBShimmer Summer 2013 Collection Launches June 1st

KBShimmer is excited to announce the release of the Summer 2013 Collection!

The summer lineup includes one glitter top coat, two glitter crellys in a white base and six bright, bold polishes, two in a matte finish. KBShimmer will also be expanding their nail care line to include two scented cuticle oils and liquid nail prep. “Our new line was created to play off the bolder palette of summer, some inspired by the 80’s and 90s, but also to celebrate the patriotic season. One of our polishes plays off the color of the year, Emerald Green, and will ease people into the summer while two others were inspired by the fall 2013 Pantone colors Koi and Vivacious. Both will make for an easy transition through the summer and into the fall. We are also excited to unveil two scented cuticle oils in an easy-applicator pen. We hope to inspire and motivate people to go out in the sun and show off their nails!” says owner and designer Christy Rose.

Welcome To The New KBShimmer Website And Blog!

Welcome To The New KBShimmer.com

You may have noticed we have a new website. We here at KBShimmer have been working with a great team from Iceberg Web Design to build you a site that will make shopping easier and more rewarding. There are some big changes you may notice right away, and some behind the scene changes that may not be noticed, but will make shopping with us even better then before! More about the changes below.

Customer Accounts:

You will now have the option to set up an account on here. Your personal information such as log-in, shipping information and order history will be stored on a secure site. You will be able to log-in, see past purchases, see your order status, and more importantly, earn rewards on your purchases. As always, your information is not shared with anyone outside KBShimmer, never used to spam you, and is never sold or shared with third parties. Your credit card information is not stored and is also processed on a secure server. To create an account during checkout, simply check the box at the bottom of the billing information section during checkout, or click the My Account Link anytime you are on the site.

Guest Log-in:

If you prefer to not create an account, your information will only be used to process your order. You can uncheck the create an account box at the bottome of the billing information section during check out.

Customer Rewards:

You can now earn reward points on purchases. When you make a purchase, points will be earned and stored in your account for later use. See our rewards page for more information.

Better Order Tracking:

When you place an order, as always, you will receive an emailed invoice from us. When your order is shipping, in addition to tracking information received from Stamps.com or PayPal, you will get an email from us letting you know your order is on the way. With an account, you can also access your order status online.

More Exact Shipping Options:

With the new site, we are pulling more detailed costs from the post office. This will show the box sizes that your order will fit in, and costs based on weight and shipping type. This will allow you to pick Express Shipping, First Class, or Priority based on your needs. The shipping options will default to priority on top, but if you have a small order, look towards the bottom for the first class option.

Real Time Inventory With Cart Holds:

In order to reduce shipping delays, we will now be using inventory tracking. If we are out of a bath bomb scent, or just sold the last Pink Sugar lotion made, it will show on the site as Sold Out. This will help us fill orders in a more timely manner. There is also a 15 minute cart hold. Once you place an item in your cart, you will have 15 minutes to check out before that item is made available for someone else. Don’t worry. With nail polish we keep a large number in stock at all times and don’t anticipate lack of inventory. During new releases, unless the polish is a limited edition, that feature will be disabled and all orders for polish will be filled.

Easy Social Media Sharing:

On each page, there is a icon bar with many of our favorite social media sites. It is super easy to share on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter and more.

Mobile Shopping:

KBShimmer.com is now mobile. Shop on our site from your phone, Kindle, iPad or other mobile device with ease.

This is a new site, so there may be tweaks made, bugs we have not found, or typos still to be fixed. If you have any problems, please do let us know at sales@kbshimmer.com. We have several exciting guest blog posts coming soon, more exciting new to share, and of course new polish and products on the way soon so check back often for news.

Happy Shopping!
