The Digit-al Dozen does Textured Nails: Textured Valentine’s Day Four

PolishandPaws

Hi you guys! It’s Day 4 of the Digital Dozen Textured theme. This mani isn’t quite as Valentines Day themed as most of my others but I’m going with it anyway cause I love how it turned out. Shall we take a look?

So when the Textured theme was announced I did a bit of searching for other great textured polishes – since all I had was Zoya PixieDusts. I love my PixieDusts but a girl needs a little texture variety in her life. I came across this Kiko Cupcake collection that was soooo cute, but long since discontinued. I posted in all the ISO facebook groups, checked ebay, googled, etc. No joy. A few days later I was on Mercari (looking for some Lula) on a whim I thought I might as well check there too. Sure enough I found 2, but they were listed 6 months earlier. I messaged the seller and she actually still had them. So I was the proud new owner of Kiko Cupcake 650 and 655. I would love to find all of them, but these will do for now.

Items used:

  • Kiko Cupcake 650
  • Sally Hansen Crayola Sunset Orange
  • Sally Hansen Crayola Melon
  • UberChic Love & Marriage 02


For this mani I did 2 coats of Kiko 650 on all of my nails excluding the ring finger. I then did 2 coats of Sally Hansen Sunset Orange. On the UberChic Love & Marriage 02 I chose the long rose bouquet image and stamped it across all my nails. I used Sally Hansen Sunset Orange to stamp over the textured Kiko polish, and Sally Hansen Melon over my ring finger.
