Silver Leopard Nails

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

I did another manicure! Once again I went for the leopard, but this time in silver! For some reason the design doesn’t show well enough in the pictures so apologies, if you’d like to recreate this please look at my other leopard manicure where the design is easier to follow.

Simple Leopard Nails

Monday, July 5th, 2010

I’ve been browsing this tumblr for the past few days and fell in love with the gorgeous manicures on there. I was inspired to do a leopard nail manicure, I thought it was going to be a bit tricky but this is SO easy, trust me! You don’t need a steady hand, and both of your hands will look amazing cause you don’t need your dominant hand to make it look good.

You start by picking a base colour and another colour for the dots, preferably ones that match, like opposite colours (what I chose) or picking a dark colour as a base and the same colour but lighter for the dots (or the other way around) that will work great as well!

1

Draw random dots all over your nails! Could it be any easier? Looks totally ridiculous and sort of resembles a disease but it will look good don’t worry! The colours I used are I Sea You and I Scream Peach, both by Catrice.

2

Dot some black nail polish on a piece of paper, grab a cue tip and draw some lines around the dots, leave gaps in between to make it look like a leopard print. This may look slightly hard but it’s really simple and it doesn’t matter if you mess up. It’s fool proof!
