The Revlon "Scents of Summer" Nail Collection
Apparently these aren't exactly "new" since the article states that this is the 2nd year for these, but it's all very fresh to me. Not gonna lie - I think the scents are pretty appealing since there's a cotton candy and a bubblegum one (two of my FAVORITE schmells ever), but I am still skeptical. Nail polish is probably one of the most strong, chemically smelling substances on the planet earth. I can't count how many times I've been painting my nails and my mom comes home and asks me if I'm embalming a body. I'm skeptical that these are going to smell kind of like how your house smells after you cook fish and then spray cheap air freshner. It smells like fruit with a lovely undertone of rankness. Nothing like the sweet smell of rankness.
I mean obviously I'm hoping for the best here because I would love nothing more than to sit here smelling my nails at my desk all day, but one can't help but have their predetermined opinions when it comes to shit like this. They claim you'll still be able to smell it even through a topcoat, but I'm almost positive you'd have a side of rankness if you tried that. I am smelling the smell right now in my head and I am sensing a headache. Nothing like the sweet scent of chemical injected cotton candy on a hot summers day. They're coming out in July 2010 and trust me, I'm buying one. You'll be hearing about it.
In other news, let's talk about how Revlon hasn't updated their packaging since 1993.
