This has fast become my HG Nail Polish! I picked this up 2 months ago and I haven't switched back to my previous fave OPI Big Apple Red for my toes my toe nail polish since. It is a coral-orange, leaning towards pink in natural daylight but can look orangey indoors (yellow lighting). It has a creamy finish, opaque but streaky with one coat so I apply two. AND IT LASTS LONGER THAN ANY OTHER NAIL POLISH I'VE TRIED! It doesn't chip off at all only when my nails grow and there's that bare nail exposed is when I repaint my nails! I went away and I was at the beach heaps in the water and through showers everything there's not one sign of wear. I don't use a base or top coat and this has really impressed me. Highly recommend and now a staple in my collection.

Bought this color for my 13 year old niece just for fun because her chihuahua really does bite! Hard! hahah so then we tried it out and both loved it! Definitely my favorite OPI color and OPI is always good so definitely a good product! I would recommend it to anyone and it is awesome for the younger age group too the 5 year old liked it too(:

This is one of my favorite polish colors that I own. OPI, as usual, has one of the best formulas out there. Out of all the brands that I have tried, OPI takes the longest to start chipping/wearing down. This particular color looks amazing on. It wears (next to my skin anyhow) as an electric orange-red. Others describe it as an neon pink or coral, but it reads much more red to me.

Just bought this yesterday, based on reviews here, and I love it! As some have said, it's a nice pinky coral. Just the colour I wanted for my toes for summer. Application was very smooth, not streaky like some of my other creme OPIs (the more sheer ones).

I love coral colours but usually lean towards the orangey-reds - on a whim, I decided to try My Chihuahua Bites at the nail salon and I love it. I've bought a bottle to do my nails at home and this colour has totally changed my mind about pinky-corals. I heart you, MCB!

I love this colour. It's a great pinky-red that I live to use on my toes all year round and on my finger nails during summer. It's a fun bright colour that looks great with a tan and is very universally flattering for a wide range of skin types.

I pulled out this polish today to do my mani, and I realized that this is probably one of my two favorite polishes, of the over 80 I own. I realize this will echo other reviews, but it IS the perfect pinky coral for my summer toes and finger. I'm super pale, but this polish isn't overwhelming as some oranges tend to be on my nails. I've given this polish to several people, including my godsister who has a less than friendly chihuahua. I think it might be a jelly or a semi-jelly, I'm not good at detecting jelliness, but it's a juicy looking creme at least. Good quality brush, even in two coats, I've gotten a mani with Cajun Shrimp and I didn't like it as much, I think its a bit pinker than MCB. I encourage anyone who is thinking about this color to try it, I think you'll like it.

The perfect summer red.
Love the colour, Love the name, Love the brush.
A gorgeous corally red. Goes with everthing, its bright and summery. I wear this at least once a month.

Beautiful orangey bright coral creme with some pink tones. I was afraid this colour would be too bright on my NC45/50 dark skin tone, but it looks just pretty and fresh on my short nails! Not crazy about the formula though. With 2 coats this was still streaky, so I used 3 coats but I can still see my nail bed if I look closely, and some unevenness as well. Plus it seemed to take forever to dry, even with Seche Vite quick-drying topcoat. One lippie off for that.
Similar colours: LA Girls Colour Addict in Indulge (but Indulge has gold shimmer) and Sally Hansen Sonic Bloom (SB is brighter and more orange)

I recently had to repurchase this product. Unfortunately i dropped my first bottle (anyone who has done this will know what a mess that is and how difficult it is to clean up). anyway, i was pretty devastated as i had just decided it was my favourite colour... gorgeous red/coral/pink/orange - depends on the lighting i guess...plus its such an awesome name.. completely opaque in 2 coats

if i run out of this bottle i will probably have to repurchase again

My first OPI polish and by far my favorite!
While pricey, this is the perfect corral color that leans more toward pink than orange. Definitely a good go to color for me!

This is a really great corally red shade, opaque in 2 coats, a little bright - OPI at its best! This was a repurchase for me when I misplaced one, that is how good it is! It's not too orange.

The perfect coral red for summer toes - to quote someone else on this site! It is my go to shade for pedicures all summer long. And being OPI it lasts and lasts...I don't have to change the polish until it "grows" out.

I used to like this color a lot when it looked more coral but for some reason mine is starting to look really red. Red isn't my color. So Idk how I feel about this one right now... :(

The perfect summer color for pale girls! This is the perfect shade of coral with a splash of pinky-red. It makes my skin glow. I usually can't wear corals or oranges, but this has nice bluey undertones that suit my skin tone (PPP). I love it and will keep buying it. The nail salon ladies complimented me on how good it looked when I brought it in for a pedicure!

When I went to buy a coral colour for summer I was looking at Bright Lights, Big Colour and Conga-line Coral. But they looked a bit off on me. I found My Chihuahua Bites by mistake and it is the most perfect coral red ever. It reminds me of the polish version of Viva Glam Cyndi by MAC. It also looks great on toes. So it is HG summer colour for me. I recommend this to anyone with olive or warmer complexions.

This is hands down my favorite summer, no...anytime, toe nail polish. Whether I'm pale or tanned, it looks great. My favorite thing about this color is the pinkish tones in it and also the fact it's a creme finish. Bout to buy a 2nd bottle. That doesn't happen...

Ladies, this is a fabulous coral for summer season! It almost looks like an extremely bright orange-red except for the slight pink-ish tones. This polish can brighten up any tan.


OPI has great pro-quality brushes and exceptional wearability. Definately will repurchase!

Okay, so I only bought this because I have a feisty chihuahua and thought it was a cute name.

That being said, I love this color. Its so pretty for summer, and looks nice against my pale skin. Normally I wouldn't get this color, I really only wanted it for the name, but after using it I really do love it.

Looks great with 2 coats, and lasts all week.
Definitely liking OPI, too bad they're so expensive.
