I love this color. Just enough red, orange, and pink tones without being too overwhelming of any. I have a fiesty little chihuahua myself so this name fits!

Thankfully I got my bottle before OPI came out with the Pro Wide brush. I hate that!

Love love love this color! I had a mani done last week and picked this out, oranges being my fave color of the moment. I have very fair skin so it works well with my skin tone. I would say if you're a darker skin tone or too red then this is probably a no.

I especially love the name of this polish!

Like one of the previous reviewers, I decided I wanted either this or Cajun Shrimp, but went with this one because it looked brighter and pinker than CS. I'm fairly pale and cool-toned, and this pulls more orange-red on me than I would have liked. I still dig the color, though.


I sometimes have formula problems with the green-label OPIs, but this one was fine. Not too thick or gooey, and didn't need to have thinner added. It was opaque enough for my tastes in two coats.

I said I'd buy this again but will probably never run out! Great color. Applies nice and even, like OPI's are known to go on. This color is almost a coral, but with a little kick too it. It's just unique enough to make you want to buy it. The picture above is not very accurate, it looks to orange/red. Also, it barely chipped during the three days I wore it; that's with Qtica NGS, CND Stickey, two coats of Chihuahua and one coat or Seche Vite.

I've been wearing this color since it was released a few years ago and always get compliments from the most important men in my life: DH and thirty-something year-old nephew. Men love this color. It's bright, happy and pretty. Not too orange, too red or too pink. Application is flawless. And the name - how funny is that?!? If you want to wear a color that will cheer up these drab recessionist times, try this one.

My HG nail color. My Chiw Bites is a really bright, unique color that makes your nails simply POP. Its a blend of orange, hot pink, and red and it is just amazing! Pics just don't do it justice, IMO. You must see it on to believe it. I love wearing this color. When I do, I gaze down at my nails and smile with glee. I had been deciding against this and Cajun Shrimp but this one appealed to me more (it seemed brighter and pinker, perhaps) plus the name is super cute! I will continue to purchase this color and will shed many tears of sorrow if it is discontinued. An absolute must-have for your nail collection. Lovely OPI quality, no shimmer, high-shine creme.

This is a bright red/coral creme that is perfect for summer. I think everyone should have a shade like this in their stash. It looked great with my cool/neutral skintone and I know it will look equally as good on those with warmer skin. Great coverage, great application, all around a great shade.

This is a total summer color. Its a very bright, neon-y orange-y red. Since I am asian, it does not go well with my skin tone.. winter. This color looks great on people with tanned skin and people who fall into the fall and spring categories, ie, red heads..... pretty much, if you can flaunt orange-y make up, it'll look great on you! But this isn't a new color, its EXACTLY OPI"s other color... most honorable red. they tend to do that. take an old color and give it a new name. LOL. For asians that would love a bright, neon-y summer color, I'd recommend strawberry margarita from OPI. its a blue toned, neon-y pink that looks great on winter tones like us!

Love! This has been my favorite pedi-polish this summer. I think it would be flattering on just about any skintone, and looks great with a (fake) tan. The cool thing is, it looks like different shades depending on the light. Sometimes it looks more coral, sometimes more tomato-red, sometimes almost deep hot pink. Like all OPI polishes, this lasts for weeks on my toes (with a base and top coat). I always get sick of my color long before it needs to be changed. I personally love the Pro-Wide brush, but if you can't get the hang of it or it bugs you you could probably find a similar shade elsewhere(Essie). And what a great name! This one is a big hit.

This is my favourite OPI nailpolish-it's a gorgeous coral colour. It applies well-the brush is fantastic and I don't get streaks. You only need a coat or two for a fantastic colour that lasts really well. Awesome!!
