nympho, bite me, & damn i'm hot

hey lacquer-istas!  i'm here again to show you some more awesome varnishes from cheeky monkey cosmetics.  this one is called nympho, hahahaha.  i seriously blushed when i read the title, and i am not a shy girl!  it is an autumn apple orangey-brown red.  not really my color.  applied easily.  this is two coats.  (please excuse the red staining around my cuticles, as this is from the previous polish i wore.)
bite me was probably my favorite polish out of the ones that i got from CM.  it's a nice pink shade but i was afraid i wasn't going to like it looking at it in the bottle--it seemed like it would be really sheer, like used for a french manicure.  however after two coats it's a squishy medium pink jelly suprise :D  la la love it!
and damn i'm hot is the polish i thought i was going to like the most, but probably ended up being the one i liked second to last.  it was a bit too brush-strokey for me.  however it is really a fun color and it is described on their website as a "streaky pewter" so i guess that's what they were going for.  very sparkley.  this is also two coats.
 
what do you guys think?  have you tried cheeky monkey cosmetics yet?  the best think about this brand is that their polishes rank a 1 on the skin deep cosmetics safety database (a 1-10 scale with one being the lowest hazard score).  idk about you but that makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :)  you can get cheeky monkey polishes on their website.  they're $15 so they aren't cheap, but if you're looking for something new and different in the polish world, CM might just be for you.

cheeky monkey nail me

that title sounds nasty haha.  this polish is from a canadian company called cheeky monkey!  awesome huh.  a "cheeky monkey" by definition is a flippant, lippy person or a bit of a smart a** haha.  the polish names are the BEST part, they're very, uhhh cheeky ;)

They are edgy and fun, but above all, high quality. Just like the women who wear them." -http://www.cheekymonkeycosmetics.com
this polish is called nail me.  a sexy red creme/jelly that was opaque in two coats.  i had a bit of cuticle drag, but i've heard these take a little longer to dry, due to their extremely low toxicity, so i probably didn't wait long enough between coats.  i would wear this red and i don't really like that color!  good formula, good brush, super fun/cute bottle!  i love how the name is written in different fonts all over it.  this was the first polish color i tried from CM and i genuinely enjoyed it!  i also used wet dream (pictured above) as my base coat for this swatch.  i appreciate the tackiness of it and the brush evenly distributes the product very well.
