Silly Bee's Chickadees Grape Sorbet and Raspberry Sorbet Reviews & Swatches

Happy Monday! I hope all the moms out there had a great Mother's Day! :) I have 2 of the 3 polishes that Silly Bee's Chickadees created especially for a Mommy Swagger Expo. Luckily she had a few bottles left and you can purchase them in her Etsy store! Be sure to grab them quick though! ;)


Grape Sorbet is a purple "crelly" with silver and pewter hex-shaped glitters in different sizes and a slight shimmer. All nails are 2 coats with a top coat of Seche Vite.
 This polish a lot of fun because it's a nice twist on a my favorite color. ;) The glitters don't get lost in the base and stand out without being too in your face. Formula was great; it was the perfect consistency, dried quickly and I didn't need to fish for any glitter.
These Sorbets also make a great base color to layer other Silly Bee's polishes over! Here is 2 coats of Bananamelon Thump Cocktail layered over Grape Sorbet and a top coat of Seche Vite.
Raspberry Sorbet is described as a slightly sheer dusty pink crelly with peach hex-shaped glitters in different sizes. The polish has some shimmer to it, but it isn't frosty. I used 2 coats and a top coat of Seche Vite.
 If you are looking for a nice, feminine polish this is for you! The combination of colors is beautiful and shimmer just sends it over the edge and makes it gorgeous! Once again formula was problem free and you get just the right amount of glitter on each nail. :)
I decided to layer 1 coat of AzĂșcar over Raspberry Sorbet, just to kick up the femininity this color brings as a base color.
P.S. While I'm writing this post I have the Prince song Raspberry Beret song stuck in my head. Only I'm now singing "Raspberry Sorbet" haha :P
