Ah it's Easter, possibly my favourite holiday. The one time of the year you can wear bunny ears and eat your body weight in chocolate and no one frowns upon it. I am a somewhat recently reformed chocoholic so I am looking forward to indulging in some of that sweet goodness that I think can be like a drug.. Yummy, I want chocolate just writing this!
I decided today, after seeing so many fabulous looking Easter manis I would attempt one. I went simple and chose dots - I do not have a steady hand at all so It had to be easy for me. I am really happy with how they came out though.
I applied one coat of Essie First Base Base Coat. Then I used Essie 743 Nice is Nice, which is a gorgeous pastel purple and alternated with Essie French Affair which is a pale, pastel pink. Over this I then applied a coat of OPI RapiDry Top Coat. For the dots I used OPI Alpine Snow and a skewer as an improvisation for a dotting tool (I need to get some nail art tools). Finally I applied another coat of RapiDry to set everything.
I hope everyone has a Happy Easter (if you celebrate it) and a great long weekend. Hopefully the Easter Bunny will treat everyone well and you have enough chocolate to have a chocolate induced coma (joking!).
Your nails look very cute :)
