Pixel: Spicy Little Thang & A Semi-Successful Water Marble!

Sorry it took me so long to swatch this Pixel polish! Here's Spicy Little Thang.

Don't y'all just love that name? I think it's cute. Let me start by saying that I'm glad I only paid $1.99 for this polish. That's about all it's worth. Although I really love the color and it was a two coater! But goodness. I first had problems when I opened the bottle and there was a bristle significantly longer than the others hanging from the brush. That was easily fixed because I just pulled it and the whole thing came out. At least I was able to get rid of that. But the brush did give me problems. All the bristles were a little different in length, and that made it hard to get an even amount of polish near my cuticles. Needless to say, I had a hard time applying it. But I love that bright pink/coral and I can see myself wearing this since I'm all about coral in the summer. The bottle's tiny but kinda cute, and the name is cute, too. So there are some good things about this polish. :)

And now for my semi-successful water marble! I so admire people who can water marble and have it actually turn out looking flawless. I really do. And I wish I was as good. Yesterday I decided to try water marbling. I've tried once before but it was just a hot mess. I quit after that. And that was about a year ago. So last night I tried again. Unsuccessful. But I didn't wanna quit altogether. So I tried again today and finally got the hang of it! I was/am so excited! My pinky turned out the best so that's what I'm going to show y'all.
I used a white base, Wet n Wild French White Creme, the pink was Sonia Kashuk Tutti Frutti and the blue was Sonia Kashuk Ocean Breeze. The Sonia Kashuk polishes work really well together, and I've always thought that. Probably because I bought them at the same time. But anyway, I just think this turned out awesome! I was so happy. I showed everyone. :)

What do y'all think of the Pixel polish? Has anyone heard of that brand? Does anyone else have Pixel polishes? What do you think of my water marble? Let me know!

Thanks for reading. :)
