After a successful partnership with ColourPop, YouTube beauty star Kathleen Lights is venturing out on her own to create nail polish.

She just launched six on-trend lacquers as part of her line KL Polish, and we have the exclusive scoop on everything you need to know about them. Kathleen is known for her "dupes" videos, so of course she kept the polishes at a nice price of $8.50 each, available at klpolish.com. The influencer has 2.7 million subscribers and 1.5 million Instagram followers, and we predict her fans will go wild over these pretty shades. But even if this is your first time learning about Kathleen, it's undeniable the fashion-forward Fall hues with a glossy finish are lust-worthy.

"I have had a love for nail polish ever since I was a little girl," Kathleen told POPSUGAR via email. "I remember my sister would keep her polishes in bins under her bed, and I would spend hours looking though all the different shades! I have always loved to express my mood and personality by my nail color."

It was actually her mother who suggested that the Floridian get into the manicure biz. "I was painting my nails in the kitchen one day with [my mom], and we were discussing how I really wanted to start my own journey in the beauty business," she said. "She suggested I follow my love for colorful nails!"
