Oh, go ahead, Zelda. Pay more. Just a little more! Think what you'll get:
1. Pay more for lipstick that doesn't look like poster paint.
2. Pay more for an orange crayon to write the tagline with (it'll save on your lipstick bills, in the end).
3. Pay more for a better photographer. One who can retouch a photo without making you look disturbingly clownish.
4. While we're at it, how about paying more for the makeup artist? The black eye makeup with the orange lipstick and nail polish is good if you're a Jack-o-lantern, maybe. Otherwise, you might want to rethink it.
5. Pay more for someone to advise you not to pose like that. It's really off-putting. And to advise you to look a little happier. How could one not be happy? For Cutex is cheap and has the wonder ingredient Enamelon (which is also a strange science fiction otherworld, and something they coat skillets with*). And not only that, but it is "chip-pruf."
6. Speaking of which - why not pay more for a proofreader. Or even a pruf-reader, for that matter.

*I am kidding. But it could be. And I got the title from looking over here (that is why I'm calling this gal Zelda, in a desperate attempt to tie everything together).
Next time I am going to tell you how we can all win a diamond doorknob (because this is just what every household needs).

Remind me not to wear cutex nail polish. It turns you into Vampira
Wow, I wouldn't want to meet her in a dark alley! Those nails look razor sharp! - G
Too. Much. Orange. :)
Yikes! She is one scary-looking chick!
Zelda has claws like Godzilla. If Godzilla would be caught dead in orange Cutex, that is. Funny post!
well at least they got the orange matching up with the rest of her lol
Amanda - That it does. Apparently.
Georgina - She is scary.
Richard - Yes, even Tang enthusiasts (of the future, since this is the 50s) would be aghast.
Tori - I don't know why they thought she was going to sell the Cutex.
TheWordWire - Yes, she can take care of herself in an adverse situation.
Amy - She does match, and she wants us all to see, too! lol
Keep her away from your children!
And to echo Richard: too much orange, it doesn't go well with the pale blue complexion, dear. Not to say you aren't welcome on planet Earth, but you may have to spend some time in solitary confinement.
Zelda looks really scary. Nightmares... aaaaa!
I wonder why her ear rings are not Orange. Looks like she's wearing them.
Have a good day...:)
Looks like a poster from Rocky Horror Picture show :O)
James - Solitary is not a bad idea, considering the look of those orange claws.
Mr S - An oversight, I would think.
Tracy - The retro version!
Well, NOW I know what happened to Baby Jane.
Zelda holds her hands like that because inexpensive Cutex polish also contains Nev-R-Dri.
! She is one scary-looking chick!
