Inspiration: hot dogs
Price: $10 / 100 cap
KBShimmer Everything is A-Bouquet is a grape purple jelly with aqua-blue-purple multichrome iridescent shimmer. I wore it in four thin coats, but two or three will cover. It has a nice, fast-drying formula.
Inspiration: fresh cut flowers
Price: $11 / no cap
KBShimmer Freshly Blended Sugar Scrub is a moisturizing exfoliator with a fresh berry, cantaloupe, lychee, sugarcane, and vanilla orchid scent.
Inspiration: tropical blended drinks

Pretty Beautiful Unlimited It's Too Pretty to Eat! is a black jelly with black and silver holo microglitters, silver holo star glitter, and four types of multichrome iridescent crystal chameleon flakes. I wore it in four thin coats, but two or three will cover. The star glitters did not really come out of the bottle easily - I only got one. I wore this polish with peel off base coat and it smoothed nicely with two layers of top coat, even with all the glitters and flakes.
