kawaii chocolate easter eggs ♥ | Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everybody! These were a lot of fun to paint, though it took me some time to warm up to the finished product.

I started out with two thin coats of a lovely chocolate brown, then added some of the texture and shading in with similar shades.

I then painted the foil pieces on with some of China Glaze's linear holographic polishes. I probably should have swapped this with the next step, but luckily everything worked out in the end anyway.

Lastly, I added the cute faces and went in again to add some more shading to the foil - as well as adding a slightly lighter shade around the eyes and mouths. I probably could have done with a bit more shading, but I think they look cute regardless!

  • China Glaze - Mahogany Magic (chocolate brown)
  • Revlon - Chocolate Truffle (from the Parfumerie line - very dark brown)
  • OPI - A-Piers To Be Tan (caramel-to-chocolate)
