Mom's Birthday Cupcakes!

Saturday was my mom's birthday (Happy Birthday again Mom!) and I had the brilliant idea (or maybe not so brilliant LOL) to attempt nail art and put cupcakes on her nails. I started out doing them on all 10 fingers and didn't like the way they looked. So I took off all but 4 of them and went with it. LOL I loosely followed the tutorial I found HERE. I ended up working on her nails until after 1 in the morning. 

Polishes used in this mani

On the "solid fingers": 

Julep Carrie and OPI Teenage Dream

On the cupcake fingers:

OPI Rumples Wiggin' for the background

Julep Carrie and OPI Teenage Dream for the frosting

Revlon French Roast for the cake

Barry M Indigo and Avon Aqua Fantasy for the sprinkles

Nubar Fire Sparkle for the cherry

Everything was topped with Seche Vite

This mani is not 100%, I did these Friday night and didn't get pics until today (Monday). For 3 full days of wear I think they look pretty darn good!

What do you think of my cupcakes? I am fairly pleased with them, I think I may be able to master these eventually with some more practice.

Barry M Indigo

Tonight I have one of my long time lemmings and my very first Barry M!!! I am so impressed with this brand, I now want them all! Indigo is a deep blue/purple color, sometimes it looks blue and sometimes it looks purple. It's blurple. The formula was amazing, nearly a one-coater and so smooth!! My pictures do not do this gorgeous polish justice. This is two coats WITHOUT topcoat, it is this shiny on its own. This is probably the shiniest creme polish I have ever seen.

What do you think of this awesome blurple?

Barry M is available in the UK but can also be purchased at www.barrym.com.
