GLAM NAILS CHALLENGE APRIL — Easter Chicks 🐣

Hello beauties & happy Wednesday!

It’s also the second prompt of Glam Nails Challenge April! & we’re keeping with our Easter trend with Easter Chicks! 🐥

Now when I think of Easter chicks, my mind immediately goes to Peeps — you know, those squishy marshmallow chicks that I feel like are a VERY controversial Easter candy. But since I wasn’t confident in my ability to freehand some peeps, I decided to go with these cute chick Easter decals I got a few years ago.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Essie Hard To Resist Glow & Shine 
  • Top Coat: Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat
  • Essence Blow My Mint (Bloom Me Up Collection)
  • Formula X for Sephora Chaotic
  • Essence Nail Art Pastel Ombré
  • Chick nail art decals
  • Daisy nail art decals

How cute are these little chick decals & daisy nail art stickers? I added the little black dots for eyes myself. Definitely Spring/Easter vibes. & yes I’m not done with speckled nail vibes yet — maybe in a few days. Haha. But for right now, I’m just going to stare at cute speckled nails & obsess over them.

Also just have to do a cute shout out because today is my 9th Blog-aversary! I swear, I always forgot that it’s coming haha so once again I forgot to do a special blog post. But I still want to celebrate because an almost decade of anything is reason to celebrate.

So happy birthday Coffee & Nail Polish. 🎂

Spring Speckled Egg Skittle Nails

It’s the time of year again lovelies, where I recreate one of my favourite Spring/Easter designs: mini egg/speckled egg skittle nails. I’ve been doing some version of this manicure since the early days of my blog, & it never gets old to me. There is something about a speckled egg design that just screams Easter & Spring. Plus it’s so easy to do!

Today’s look was especially on the easy side, as I chose a glitter top coat for my specks.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Essie Hard To Resist Glow & Shine 
  • Top Coat: Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat
  • Matte Top Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Matte Top Coat
  • Sally Hansen MG Sun-Shower
  • Sally Hansen MG Sweet Pea
  • Sally Hansen MG Sugar Fix
  • Sally Hansen MG Lavendoor
  • Sally Hansen MG Orchid-ing Aside
  • ACO by Ardene Meteorite
  • Wet N Wild 2% Milk

When I saw this look was super simple, I mean it was super simple. I painted each finger a different colour, applied the glitter top coat, applied Wet N Wild 2% Milk for that faded look, then finished it off with my Seche Vite (because there was a lot of layers of polish) & then added my matte top coat after about 15 minutes. Everything did take a while to dry, but it was totally worth it! I just love a good speckled nail design.

What do you think about this speckled egg design? Do you like a look like this for Easter & Spring? Are you already feeling the Spring temps where you are? It’s just starting to warm up around us, so I’m excited. I’ll be wearing my Spring dresses in no time!
