Last two Pixy Stix scented polishes- Orange and Cherry

Here are the last 2 polishes from my giveaway.  First up, we have Orange.  It is also sheer, and I completely forgot to try it over white!!  This is about 4 coats:


My pictures don't show the bit of shimmer these have, it kind of looks like a lollipop on your nails!  It also smelled like an orange lollipop, but the smell didn't stick around as long as the Grape did.  It also matched the Cheetos I was pigging out on as well!!

Next up is Cherry.  I remembered to put this one over white!!  Please excuse the crappy application though, I did this in a friend's garage at about 9 pm while Mr. Ski was throwing darts... (3 coats over white)


This was more orange colored to me than cherry, but it smelled like cherry, and was totally yum!!  I kept smelling my hands, just like I did with Grape.  Mr. Ski told me that my fingers looked "1968 Chevy Camaro orange" and that I should have put a racing stripe with the white...  : )

These are fun polishes, and I hope the winner enjoys them as much as I do!!

Until later,

Pixy Stix scented polish- Grape

Here is the first swatch of the scented polishes I am giving away. (you can enter the contest here.)  I let the Princess pick, and she chose grape.  I also told her to choose one for her to wear and I would put it on my blog, but she picked it off before I could get a pic!!

Here is Grape:


This is 4 coats, plus a topcoat.  I took a blurry picture so you could see the purple color better:

It is a bit sheer, but it turns into a lovely, glowy purple with some shimmer!!  Not bad for a cheapy polish!!  As for the scented part, it smells just like grape Kool- Aid!!  I kept smelling my fingers, LOL!  You could smell it, even after adding SV, so that is a plus!

Until Later,
