Today I had to go back to CVS to pick up Chicky’s third antibiotic.
Yes, I said third.
Her second prescription, Augmentin, made Chicky have terrible diarrhea, nausea, and fits of vomiting.
It has been ugly in my house lately.
The doctor had mercy on her and prescribed Amoxycillin, a milder antibiotic.
Anyhoo, as I was saying…I was at CVS picking up the newest medicine when I began to browse.
Now, I am not normally a fan of shopping, unless we’re talking shoes or office supplies, but I also have a penchant for fingernail polish and other doo-dads you find at drug stores.
So, I perused…
And I found stuff that I liked…
And I tested the stuff out…right there in the store…
And the other hand…
Now, don’t you dare start in on me about opening fingernail polish in the store.
You KNOW you do the same thing, unless you happen to be a guy. Of course, you could be a guy who test drives fingernail polish. I’ll leave that between you and the Lord.
The first thing I noticed about the purple polish was the sparkling effect…
You know how much I love sparkles…me, the owner of pink sparkly shoes.
As I was inspecting the polish, I noticed something on the label. What catches your attention on the following bottles…
Look…
Scented Parfume!!!!
Seriously.
It appears that Revlon has introduced a new line of nail polish that smells like fruit when it dries.
Well, I had to give a bunch of them a try, just to make sure that the advertising was true to its word.
It was.
The purple polish is called “Not So Blueberry,” and it smells a tad like blueberry. I’m not a fan of blueberries, but the smell wasn’t bad at all.
There was “Bubble Gum,” “Peach Smoothie,” “Cotton Candy,” and “Mad About Mango” (the bottle on the left in the above photo and on my nail below)…
As I walked to the back of the store to pick up Chicky’s prescription, I kept smelling my fingernails.
I’m sure I looked weird.
Actually, that’s nothing new.
Well, because it’s been a rough few days around her, I indulged…
As soon as I got home, I quickly applied a coat of the Mango polish…
On my toes.
So now my tootsies smell fruity too.
No, I’m not sitting on the couch smelling my feet.
I’d like to though.
I’m not coordinated enough to do this.
Plus, the Mr. would look at me strangely when he walked in the door.
I’m kind of used to that too though.

I cannot take Augmentin either…I thought I was having appendicitis when they gave it to me years ago. Sorry your daughter is still so sick…hope she is on the mend soon. Sounds so miserable and its hard to see these big kids laid low.
Oh, Thank GOODNESS…..so glad I’m not the only one who LOVES to shop office supplies/school supplies!!!:D
I remember those sparkly shoes;)
Poor Chicky 😦
You know what – I honestly never thought ot try out the polish before! I’m going to go do it just for fun now 🙂
Scented polish – that’s crazy!!! But I’m intrigued.. I’m going to have to to try it. Wonder what my sweating running socks will smell like with that polish on… hmmm….
