Velveeta Cheese-Scented Nail Polish: Finger Lickin’ Good

Available as a limited-edition collaboration between Velveeta and Nails.INC, the Pinkies Out Polish Creamy Smooth Cheese Scented Nail Polish Duo is a $15 two-pack of Velveeta-inspired nail polish that smells like cheese when dried. The pinnacle of human achievement: we’ve finally reached it. I never imagined it would happen in my lifetime, yet here we are.

Per Velveeta’s official announcement: “What’s up, mother forkers – We’re introducing the world to Velveeta Pinkies Out Polish, a red and yellow cheese-scented polish that’s bold, over-the-top, and made to stand out with your smallest finger out. That’s #LaDolceVelveeta.” Wow, first we reach the pinnacle of human achievement, then I’m addressed by a cheese company as a ‘mother forker’ – today is just full of surprises.

So, the question remains: if my wife is wearing Velveeta cheese-scented nail polish, am I going to try nibbling her fingernails when she puts her arm around me? That remains to be seen. Or, in my case, tasted. So yes, the answer is yes – I am absolutely going to do that.

KFC Edible Nail Polish Makes Your Fingers Taste Like Chicken

Things get weird in Asia sometimes. If you need any further proof of that fact, consider this new marketing campaign for KFC in Hong Kong. Now the idea of nail polish from a fried chicken restaurant is strange enough – and then you realize the polish is flavored like chicken. I don’t think this is what the Colonel meant when he said “It’s finger lickin’ good.”

Apparently, you can paint your nails with this special polish and the polish tastes like chicken. There are two flavors each with their own color. The bright orange color is Hot & Spicy presumably tasting like spicy chicken. The pale pink shade is supposed to taste like KFC’s Original Recipe fried chicken.

The polish is applied like normal polish and is said to be work just like that bitter nail polish designed to keep people from biting their nails. Just don’t drink too much and pass out near a dog while wearing this polish.

Jolly Rancher-Scented Polish Makes Nails Hard to Resist

Lotta Luv is a cosmetics company that’s no stranger to collaborating with well-known chocolate and candy franchises. The latest one they’ve forged is with Jolly Rancher, where they’ve incorporated the candy’s familiar flavors into the scents and colors of their new 5-color nail polish set.

I know many nailbiters try to kick the bad habit by coating their nails with a layer or two of polish, but this is a set they should probably avoid if they want to succeed at their goal. The candy colors are tempting and perfect for summer, but if you’re trying to keep yourself from chewing on your cuticles, then these are a no-no.

Each set comes with five bottles of polish with the following color and flavor combinations: cherry (red), grape (violet), watermelon (pink), blue raspberry (obviously this one is blue), and green apple (which is again, obviously green.)

If Jolly Rancher isn’t your type, then maybe you’d fancy Bubble Yum or Nerds-scented polishes by Lotta Luv instead. You can get the Jolly Rancher polish set from Amazon for $8.88.
