It’s 1 December, and that can only mean one thing!

It’s day one of my Mini Mani Month!

Today, it’s Cupcake Queen. The website describes it like this: “A loveable Barbie pink shade with a very subtle blue shimmer. Reach for this bright colour to exude feel good vibes to the world. Team this with a sunny vibrant personality.”

That blue shimmer might be hard to see on film, but it adds an intriguing edge to this bubblegum pink colour.

I have to say, I never would have chosen this shade myself, but that was kind of the point of getting this set – to try new things and different colours, and see if I can find some new favourites.

They do look snazzy up against my black keyboard, though! It’s been fun having pink nails for the day, and the blue shimmer gives it an extra dimension – but I can’t wait for tomorrow… I’m like a kid in a sweet shop!
