Cupcake Nail Art


Cupcakes
What you will need:
Pink Polish
Teal polish
White nail art polish
Cherry red polish
Colors for sprinkles
Toothpick

Cupcakes are delicious! That's what makes them fun and cute to wear on your nails! You can substitute any of these colors to make the cupcake look more realistic but I like colorful so I went with my favorite color of Essie nail polish, turquoise and caicos. This design will make your nails look almost as yummy as a real cupcake!

First paint your nail the color you want the bottom of the cupcake to be (pink). Then paint two thirds of your nail teal leaving one third of pink left. Next take your white nail art brush and paint on the icing, icing is never perfect so put as much on as you like on your cupcakes! After you paint on the icing paint the white lines on the one third of pink. Make sure the lines are touching the teal for the full effect of the cupcake wrapper. For this next step you can use a toothpick or the brush in the bottle. Take your red nail polish and place a red dot at the top of each cupcake for a cherry. Although cupcakes don't have cherries it completes the look. Finally, choose four of your favorite colors for the sprinkles. Use your toothpick and dip it in one of the colors you have chosen and dot sprinkles on the icing part of the cupcake. Repeat until there are enough sprinkles so that your nails pop with color! Add a top coat and your done!
