Nothing Kim-Pares to Blue
A pastel baby blue with a silver shimmer. It starts out sheer, but does build up to cover the nail line after three coats. Formula was very nice, no problems with application. This is one of my favorites from this release...

Here Kim's The Sun (over Nothing Kim-Pares to Blue)
A clear base with small holographic glitter. I layered two coats over Nothing Kim-Pares to Blue for the swatches. The glitter appears bigger in the bottle than what comes out on the nail. Part of the reason is that the glitter is clear and only flashes different colors at certain angles. This was quite unexpected and I love it. Click on the photos to zoom in for a closer look...

Kim Konfidential
A warm beige cream. It was opaque in two coats, but I used three coats for even coverage. The formula was nice, no dragging or bald spots. Swatches are with a top coat...

Up & Kim-ing Pink
A sweet pastel pink cream. It was opaque in two coats, however, I used three coats to even everything out. This does need a light touch when applying to prevent streaking and dragging near the cuticles. I can't get enough of this shade of pink lately. This is with a top coat...

Others Pale by Kim-Parison
A soft milky white cream. This is a great white, not too bright or harsh as white can be and easily wearable. Application was a bit sensitive and required a light touch to avoid streaking. Opaque in two coats, but once again this is three coats to even everything out...

Lights, Kim-era, Action!
A pearly white with a green shimmer. The green shimmer did not show up in the photos as it does in person. The formula is sheer, but does build up with multiple coats. The nail line is only slightly visible after three coats, which is what was used for these swatches...

Lights, Kim-era, Action! (Over Others Pale by Kim-Parison)
To avoid the visible nail line, I tried layering Lights, Kim-era, Action! over the white, Others Pale by Kim-Parison. Swatches are one coat of Lights, Kim-era, Action! over two coats of Others Pale by Kim-Parison. I love this combination, it covers up the nail line without altering the color dramatically. Beautiful pearly white...
A closeup of the shimmer. Am I just imagining it or can you actually see some of the green?...
I hope you enjoyed these swatches!
As always, I would love to know what you think of these. Which one appeals the most to you ?
Thanks for looking!

I love love love the blue one.
ReplyDeleteThat Nothing Kim-pares to Blue sure looks a lot like Sinful Colors - Cinderella! Possible dupe? Ill have to pick this one up to compare!!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Luminosity, the blue reminds me a lot of Sinful Cinderella. I would love to see a comparison!
ReplyDeleteAll colours are very beautiful! Especially blue and beige.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THE BLUE ONE!
ReplyDeleteThank you girls! The blue is my fave too! :)
ReplyDeleteThe blue is not a dupe with Cinderella. Cinderella has a pink shimmer and it is a different shade... I will do a comparison soon! :)
Kim Konfidential totally stands out for me! I really like the caramel-ness of it! Lovely swatches
ReplyDeleteIt is a lovely color indeed Marta! Glad you like it :)
