Pastel Cupcake Nails

Hellooooooo  (★^O^★)

It's spring break for us right now, and I FINALLY painted my nails again. Pastel cupcakes!
Not as clean as last time.. T_T;; It didn't turn out as expected, but it's still cute nonetheless. I really wanted to  do at least one more fun, spring pastel NOTD before summer arrives. Speaking about spring, sdlkfasjdfkl it doesn't feel like spring at all right now. It's cold, gloomy, cloudy, rainy, COLDDDD, and lonely. Where are the sing-song birds and the cute little rabbits? LOL 
I did pastel cupcake (ice cream?) nails! I feel like this color combo gives off a different mood than my last pastel combo. 

Too lazy to clean it up haha!
 I keep on realizing I have way too much nail polish every time I paint my nails. T-T
L-R: Ulta Encore Pink (didn't use it), Sinful Colors Sweet Tooth, Essie A Crewed Interest,  Hello Kitty Banana Cream, SH  Mint Sorbet, Sephora by OPI Havana Dreams

I ended up using so many coats that the nail polish never really dried! I painted them hours ago and I can still scrape it off with my nails. >_< At least they cheer me up! 

Sweet Tooth is really pretty; has the slightest shimmer and is sort of jelly-like.
A Crewed Interest is so pretty color-wise, but the formula is a no-no. Streaky, pooling, sheer, blah.
Banana Cream is pretty good for a pastel yellow. I still need to use 4 thin coats though..
Mint Sorbet is really prettyyyyy! Good formula, good pigment.
Havana Dreams is also pretty color-wise, but really sheer. It could be good for jelly sandwiches though!
There are dents everywhere!
By the way, those red dots are supposed to be cherries lol.
Sorry for the awkward hand positions. I'm still trying to look for a pretty way to take pictures. I'm not sure how long this will last.. I kinda already have another design that I'm looking forward to doing. 
Anyways, thanks for reading! I hope this inspires you guys to try your own rendition of pastel nails!

'Til next time~ (✿◠‿◠)
