Animal Print Series - Leopard

Happy Monday to you my gorgeous readers!

Today I want to show you another manicure from my recently launched Animal Print Series. This is my Leopard.

After applying basecoat (Maybelline) I painted my nails in two different base colours. On my pointer  and ringfinger I used  two coats of china glaze - White On White and on my others I applied two coats of Maybelline Color Show - Mauve Kiss.

With a nailart brush I made a diagonal line across my white base and filled in the tips with one layer of Mauve Kiss. Using a dottingtool I created a random pattern of brown spots using Maybelline Color Show - Midnight Taupe (549) on my nude base. With a fine nailart brush I partially outlined them with Wet 'n Wild - Black Creme and also filled in a few bald spots.

To give this manicure a little sparkle, I filled in a few of the brown spots with OPI - 50 Years Of Style and added some rhinestones in gold, white and black to contour my diagonal lines. Then I applyied my Seche Vite Top Coat for extra shine.

I really love how this turned out and am quite happy with the outcome.

How do you like this manicure? Are you a fan of animal prints?

Animal Print Series - Tiger - Leo - Butterfly on Rainbow

Hello Beauties!

Here I am with the promised second post for my 6 months bloggiversary! I did some different designs on my sponged rainbow from erlier today with Wet 'n Wild - Black Creme and china glaze - White on White.

On my thumb I did a tiger pattern wich turned out to be my favourite. On my pointerfinger I tried a butterfly design wich looks okay, but I guess I could do better. So try, try again! :-D (I will show you how I did this in an extra post.)

On my middlefinger I tried to do a Zebra pattern. I wanted it to look different from the tiger on my thumb and therefore went a bit too much criss cross, wich turned out to look weired and I didn't really like it. So I tried to patch it up with a rhinestone rainbow line down the middle.

On my ringfinger I tried watermarbeling, wich was okay, but I ended up with a bit too much black on my nail. A little white rhinestone gave it more contrast and it was alright again. (I also have some pictures of how I did the water marble, wich I will show you shortly.)

And last but not least my pinkie. Here I did a Leopard print. I really like thisone too!

How do you like my designs? Wich one is your favourite?
