Leopard Nails!

Hi everyone! This is my first ever blog so I hope you like it! (But im still learning how to use this). Im sure as my blog progresses you will all learn how much I love painting nails so I thouht it would be good to show you all my latest design.... LEOPARD PRINT NAILS!!  
 
 
These are the items you will need... (obviously if you wish to do other colours then use those)
 
 
Always best to start wit nail varnish free nails! File them to get the shapeyou require then apply a base coat to avoid staining and damaging your nails

 
Then apply your base colour

 
Apply two layers if you wish for a more even look

 
For th next stage you will need your other chosen colour and something to apply it with (I find a kirby grip is very useful fo dots but there are proper nail items to use for this type of application). Rememr to let your base colou dry before continuing to the next stage

 
Apply dots onto your nail either straight from the brush or using the grip by collecting some nail varnish on the ball at the end of the grip

 
Then use the grip so spread the nail varnish dos into a leopard prin shae

 
Do this to all fngers then leave them to dry

 
This next stage is when you really start to notice the leopar print forming however it does require a steady hand! Carefully draw two black lines around the shape you have formed but not completely round. This step can either be used with a nail art pen (what I use) or a simple blck nail varnis but this woul have to have a thin brush

 
The final stage of creating your leopard print nails is simply making dots around your nails (all different shapes and sizes)

 
Don't forget your top coat!!!


 
And there you have it! Leopard print nails!!!
