Here are the colors I used for my Easter Pastel Skittles mani:
I wanted to use a pink creme to match all of my Maybelline LE Sweet Thing collection polishes, and I was surprised to go through my stash to discover that the only true creme I own in the pink catagory is WnW Wild Shine Lavendar Creme (which is a pretty hot pink and in no way lavender to me). Anyway, I think it was fun to put a brighter color into the mix so I'm really happy with the way it turned out. Bright and cheery!
Of course, since I did this late last night, and without my glasses, it's pretty messy and I smudged my thumb beyond repair. But I have a feeling that I'll be seeing more damage today as I make three batches of cookies, a double-batch of potato salad and then "assist" the Easter Bunny in hiding some eggs. :)
I hope you all have a wonderful time this weekend, no matter what you do!
Love that wet n wild nail colour, lovely bright yet pastel! Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! Have fun with your easter festivities! I will be showing some friends around tourist central this holiday in my silver manicure!
ReplyDeleteThese colors are so pretty! I've been looking everywhere for those express finish polishes but they're always sold out... boo!
ReplyDeleteI love them all!!
ReplyDeleteI love these colors! Pastels are soo pretty but I don't own any :[ No store in my area has the maybelline sweet thing collection.. but I'm still looking!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I've been getting into cremes lately. I used to be a sparkle only girl, but after wearing some spring/summery cremes lately I'm hooked. I actually really like that "lavender" creme! I'm wearing a Milani Tip Toe Pink this weekend a bubble gum pink creme.
ReplyDeleteI really like the Wet n Wild! I've passed up this polish so many times, but if it looked like this, I don't know why I would. :/
ReplyDeleteI'll get it next time I'm at the drugstore! It's really fab!
Happy Easter!
Love the mani! And that Wet & Wild is the funniest shade of lavender that I have ever seen! It must come from the "Island of the color blind" Collection. Heh....

Those are such lovely colors! I've been loving pastel nail polish lately. I def have to get my hands on some of those ^^
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!
ReplyDeleteLOVE your mani! I was just about to do mine, actually. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Easter! <3
Oh, lame! I went to my drugstore to get that polish, and it's a completely different color! A brighter, vivid pink. Not something that you could at all consider a pastel.
ReplyDeletePretty! I've got Midnight Prowl on right now myself, but it's not exactly Spring-y. XD
ReplyDeleteamazing color. I love this. Look so fun. hahhaa.
ReplyDeletethis manicure is so much fun! happy easter!
ReplyDeleteI'm all about those colors FO SHO! Minty is my jam!
ReplyDeleteWow, ladies, it makes me SOOO happy that you enjoyed this mani as much as I did! Yay!! I'd love to hear what *you* wore on your nails this weekend too! :) Thanks so much for all the sweet words, and I'm glad I'm not alone in thinking the WnW name is waaaay off base. lol!
ReplyDeleteAnd Erin: I think maybe you need to re-read what I wrote in this post. I never said the WnW shade was a pastel, in fact I actually described it as a "hot pink"! lol! So...sorry you thought it was a pastel, but in my swatches it looks pretty bright to me? Oh well...sorry it wasn't what you were looking for. :)
