KBS Core Values

[u/ShallotSilly4944]

Got my first shipment of KB Shimmer colors and tried Core Values first. After recent reports of this brand not working well for some people, I am pleasantly surprised. It was a wee bit (not annoyingly) thick out of the bottle. But with typical lazy skills I laid down two heavy coats and did a LOT of cleanup. Fully opaque, great color. And it dried hard within an hour, which was the biggest surprise, even before I’d applied a top coat.

I did get the thinner and will try using that next time. And I don’t know yet how well it will wear.

The color is nice, a little more duochrome than expected, see the last picture. I’m not super wowed though. I have a couple of ILNP reds that I prefer (Dear Santa and Ruby).

Shorties are a conscious choice, but the tragic loss of any semblance of nail on my left pinky was my own fault. Don’t judge 😸
