Revlon Scented Nail Enamel ($4.79)
My Thoughts:
How fun! Scented nail polish! I’ve never used scented nail polish before so I didn’t know what to expect when I tried out Revlon’s Scented Nail Enamel. Surprisingly, the scented nail polish was very pleasant. The scent wasn’t too overwhelming when the nail polish dried, and they all smelled like their names. Mmm…yummy! I only could smell the fruity scent when my fingers were near my nose. The scent lasted for a couple of days. As each day passed, the scent would fade away.
The nail polish itself is great. I didn’t experience any chipping or peeling for days. I didn’t even use a protective topcoat! Two coats was all I needed for full coverage, and the polish applied very easily and smoothly. There are 16 shades to choose from. You can view them here. The 5 out of the 16 shades I own are:
305 Sublime Strawberry: a rosy pink with tiny golden shimmer
315 Pretty In Papaya: a bold reddish, orange
350 Raspberry Rapture: a red with a hint a of dark pink
365 Orange Pop: a golden, orange duochrome
375 Passion Fruit: a dark, grape purple
Note: Don’t be stupid like me and take a whiff of the nail straight from the bottle thinking it’ll smell yummy fruity. I don’t know what I was thinking. In fact, I don’t think I was using my brain, because I didn’t notice the “scented when dry” label on the bottle until the after big whiff incident. I think I was too excited about the scented feature to notice the big “scented when dry” label.

I like how Strawberry looks! I’m not a huge fan of the scented polish. I have cotton candy and something else and the smell just annoys me mostly. The color is so pretty though but I won’t wear it often due to the smell. I liked those scented pencils when I was a kid though!

Ladies – NONE of my stores has these! And Audrey, you’re not stupid – just silly!
I like the Papaya – it looks so cheerful!

Really??? None?? Ive seen it online maybe u get from amazon?
so pretty
the scent didn’t last as long on me as it did on you, to me it faded after the next day, with a shower in between. however the paul & joe ones lasted a lot longer in comparison. I am glad each bottle smelled differently, I want to collect them all now!

i thought the scent would fade quickly too after reading your review, but it lasted for me. I even washed my hands a ton of times and showered too. maybe it depends on each bottle.
lol or maybe my nose is crappy hahaha

maybe it’s your nose
I was just like, “Hey wait, I think I have Sublime Strawberry!” and sure enough, I went looking for it and I do have it. I haven’t tried it yet, so I didn’t even know I had a scented polish. lol I bought it in a two pack at Big Lots, it was with that red glitter top coat and that’s what I bought the two pack for!
HAHAHAHA what are you waiting for? Go try it! Go go go!!
ooo i like the Sublime Strawberry colour! I’ve had a nail polish that smelled really nice before but I dont see these often. Most of the time they still ahve that awful alcohol smell to it. I’m interested to see how well these smell now
do they come in more colours?

yup! i believe there are 16 colors total so far. i only own 5 of the 16
i’m liking pretty in papaya, name and color lol
but scented nail polishes… don’t really appeal to me…
if i do get something from this collection it would be for color …
the colors in the collection are really pretty. very summery
Sublime Strawberry looks really pretty!
I actually don’t even like nail polishes (too lazy) but these seem like something I’d use. reminds me of those scented markers I’d always get when I was younger!
