Silly Bee's Chickadees Café and Té Swatches Part 2

Even though I previously posted these two colors (here) I wanted to show them off yet again, so everyone could see they not only work as polish on their own but also to layer over other colors and change them up a bit! ;)
(Yes this is the same photo from the previous post, my bottles are getting large "dents" in the from so much usage! :P )


First up is Café over 3 coats of Sinful Colors Sugar Rush. My index nail is one coat, my middle nail is the Sinful Colors by it's self, ring nail is 2 coats and pink nail is 3 coats. All nails have no top coat. 
I know it was a bit weird to use the base color on it's own of my middle nail. I wanted to be able to show the obvious difference that Café changed it up. ;) Also, you are probably thinking it was weird base color in the first place to layer a brown over, but I think it works and looks pretty neat! ;) Like a smokey downed blue in one coat and a nice dark chocolate colored creme at 2 and 3 coats.
Té over 3 coats of Sinful Colors Cotton Candy. Again applied in the same order of coats as I did with Café above, I did over 3 coats of Sinful Cotton Candy and no top coats
At one coat it gives Cotton Candy a coral-like appearance and really oranges it up in 2 and 3 coats. I don't think *scratches head* I have a orange like Té creates at 2 and 3 coats in my collection, so it's great to now have one in a way! 
Ok so I was going to try not to use a purple-like color to layer these polishes over because Melissa, the creator of Silly Bee's Chickadees, did that with OPI Houston We Have Purple some of her shots, but I couldn't help myself! >_< I started with 2 coats of Pure Ice Monte Carlo (which I used for another Silly Bee's post here!)and used 1 coat of Café over my index nail, 2 coats on my ring nail, 1 coat of Té over my middle nail and 2 coats on my pinky nail. All nails have no top coats. 



You can purchase The Beverage Cart collection, and all of the polishes from Silly Bee's Chickadees, on Esty here. Make sure to follow Silly Bee's Chickadees on Facebook here, there is a collaboration from her and Sonoma Nail Art coming out very soon! The line is very amusing, to say the very least! :P Be sure to check out Melissa's blog here for all sorts of cute and crafty things.

Silly Bee's Chickadees polishes were sent for review, all opinions are my own.
