Cupcake Nail Art: step-by-step!

Hi everyone!

So I decided I’d try a cupcake nail art tutorial. It was definitely one of the most challenging, but others make it look so easy!! haha! Anyway, I hope you like it!

Step-by-step Instructions, and products I used!

• Apply  a base coat if you want.  I used Seche Crystal clear base coat
• Apply 2 coats of pink polish to all nails except ring finger.  I used OPI’s “Don’t Know…Beets Me!”
• Apply 2 coats of taupe to ring fingers.  I used OPI’s You Don’t Know Jacques!
• Draw lines for cupcake foil.  I used Kiss Nail Art in black
• Draw you cupcake/icing (TIP: cupcake shape is almost cloud-like. It’s VERY tedious I know…)
• Add “sprinkles” to your cupcake by dotting on pink dots (or any color for that matter)
• Add red cherry on the top.  I used China Glaze “Ruby Pumps” because it’s a beautiful sparkly red.
• To the rest of your nails add polka-dots using the color you chose for your ring finger.
• Finish with a top coat!

Between each step in this nail art I allowed TIME for my nails to dry. You don’t want the polish to bleed. A quick dry product helps to speed up the process.

Thanks! I hope you enjoyed this! It’s super cute but easy to mess up if you don’t allow you self a ton of patience, lol!
