NOTD: Cuppycake gumdrops # ❤

When I think of cupcakes, one word comes to mind: CUTE! Usually I'm not a girl who goes for cute things, but cupcakes are just so pretty to look at, even the really simple ones.




(Would you believe it, this is actually a painting! By this really talented girl Thaneeya.)

I've wanted to do cupcake nails for mooonths and YES! Finally finally I've got little cupcakes on the tips of my fingers. For about 2 seconds, I thought I'd lost my passion for nails, but now I realize that is so not the case!

I ♥ my cupcake nails CHO MUCHO!!! So cute and kawaii and sigh... quite a success for my first attempt at real proper nail art (without any Konad).








Right thumbnail is kinda screwed up cause it accidentally kena my hair before the topcoat was dry T_T



My right hand's obviously a bit messier than the left (ambidexterity would be SO useful nowadays!) and the cupcake holders are pretty screwed up cause I HATE my white polish! It's so streaky and uneven with 1 coat. I never dare apply 2 coats cause it'll get thick and goopy. Are all white polishes like that?? Susa uses white acrylic paint for her nails, btw, not polish.

I really should get myself some new nail polish colours... I just keep working with the same ones over and over again cause I'm pretty kiamsiap haha! 

You know what every nail polish afficionado needs? NAIL POLISH THINNER!!! If anybody wants to buy me the perfect birthday present, that'd be it! Besides shoes, of course :D

My original inspiration was this "Donut" manicure by Susa, a German artist. I originally found her on Flickr and now she has a Tumblr! :D She's absolutely AMAZING *kowtows*

I feel like biting my nails! Heeee, so irresistable ♥
